Rainer only has to win the Championship MVP... on last year's winless team.

Twelve-year-old Rainer Thomas just moved from Georgia to Texas. When three kids saw him at the batting cages, they asked if he was good at baseball. "I was the best player in my old town," he replied.

The next thing Rainer knew, he was trapped in a bet over who could win Championship MVP. Making matters worse, that's when he learned his new team won zero games last season.

Is the new kid in town about to be the league laughing stock?

The Last-Place Legends is a middle grade baseball novel for young readers. Fans of Matt Christopher will love this underdog story that follows in the footsteps of The Bad News Bears and The Mighty Ducks.

Rainer Thomas's adventure continues in a chapter book series great for reluctant readers who love baseball.
