Description
There’s no telling what a game of baseball might bring. Big hits, wild throws, and feisty managers … or ball-launching cannons, horseback outfielders, and shovel-wielding base thieves! In Pirates at the Plate, an afternoon at the ballyard features all this and more. In a one-of-a-kind showdown between cowboys and pirates, bullpens are actually bull pens, bench-clearing brawls are a matter of course, and stars such as a slugging Blackbeard and hard-throwing Wild Bill Hickok inject rowdy adventure into the great summer pastime.

"It's a rip-roaring story, and even the twist ending doesn't diminish its sense of playfulness and fun."—Publishers Weekly
