Baseball Thief — Brian McFarlane

Max and Marty Mitchell befriend the star pitcher and catcher of the team — Satchel Paige and Josh Gibson — two of the greatest players in baseball history. The local sheriff and others in Indian River, however, are slow to welcome the stranded players. When Satchel and Josh are wrongly accused of theft and thrown in jail, it's up to the Mitchells and their friends to follow a dangerous path in their efforts to track down the real culprits.
