Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
At Little League, Luis is catching fly balls, stealing bases, and hitting like a champ. But there is a problem: he thinks he's getting good luck from the snacks he samples at the supermarket before every game. Then one day his mom goes directly to the field and he has a horrible practice. The day she skips the stop at the store before a game, he strikes out twice.
Luckily, Luis's father understands and convinces him that practice and concentration matter much more than any superstition.
Luis is convinced that he will not perform well on the baseball field without following his unique pre-game ritual.
Text mainly in English with some Spanish words.
