ix [3] 175 [5] pages. This is the seventh book in the Baseball Card Adventures series. The story follows 13-year-old Joe "Stosh" Stoshack, who possesses a unique ability: by holding old vintage baseball cards and falling asleep, he can travel back in time. In this installment, Stosh and his retired Little League coach, Flip Valentini, go on a mission to settle a massive baseball debate: who threw the fastest pitch in history? They use an old card to travel back to 1942 to watch Satchel Paige pitch to the legendary power hitter Josh Gibson in the Negro League World Series. Dan Gutman (born October 19, 1955) is an American writer. His works include the Baseball Card Adventures series that began with Honus & Me, The Genius Files series, and My Weird School series. Gutman's Baseball Card Adventures series, illustrated by Steve Chorney, revolves around a boy named Joe Stoshack who travels back in time to meet baseball legends.
