Satchel’s Stolen Strike is now available for purchase on Amazon! Satchel’s Stolen Strike is different from my other Ballpark Mysteries books. Instead of taking place at a Major League stadium, it takes place in a minor-league ballpark in Birmingham, Alabama!
A Ballpark Mysteries Book Set in Birmingham?
Yes! Satchel’s Stolen Strike is a unique Ballpark Mysteries book since it doesn’t take place at a Major League stadium. Instead, it occurs during a Major League event at minor-league ballpark. This June, Major League Baseball is hosting MLB at Rickwood Field: A Tribute to the Negro Leagues with a special baseball game between the San Francisco Giants and the St. Louis Cardinals.
My new book, Satchel’s Stolen Strike, takes place at this upcoming event, with Mike and Kate heading to Birmingham for the Negro Leagues MLB event. The event and a big MLB game take place at Rickwood Field, the oldest professional ballpark. After an important Satchel Paige baseball gets stolen, the MLB celebration may be cut short unless Kate and Mike can find the thief and locate the priceless baseball.
Satchel’s Stolen Strike also includes additional information about the Negro Leagues and famous Negro Leagues players like Willie Mays and Satchel Paige, as well as Rickwood Field.
