    Caught a Piece of That One
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2012*

It's no home run, but the batter connected with the ball, and it's going to take some clever fielding to hold the runner down to a double.But Coach is right about that (page 21): baseball isn't about a star hitter knocking them out of the park on every at-bat, it's about what a whole team can do if they hit, run and field.Dashiell Brody and her sister Arica are trying to deal with reality: the reality of a new school (and one with boys, at that), the reality of their father's absence, the reality of the many changes in their lifestyle (they've pretty clearly come down in the world).Arica approaches reality as best she knows how, trying to fit in, find a place for her in the social order.  Dashiell decides to make her own reality by trying out for the baseball team (she's played softball -- now she's ready for REAL baseball).  Various adults and students are agin' it, of course, but she gets to try out*, she makes the team*, she earns the respect of hostile teammates and adults*, the team has a great season and goes to the championships*.*Also of course.It is all a little bit "of course", I'm afraid.  I expect it's hard to write a baseball story that deviates very far from this formula.  But it's a swell ride, and it is still satisfying to see skeptics converted, soreheads punished and virtue triumphant -- at least on the playing field.Along the way, Dashiell, Arica and their mother confront other realities they can't remake, some they can't even influence, the hardest being the understanding that Dad isn't calling simply because it's not important to him.But they have each other, Arica has her friends (and a boyfriend), Dashiell has the game (and a friend who is a boy), and hey, just wait 'til next year.

    Solid YA graphic novel about sports and life
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2015*

De Filippis and Weir are solid storytellers, and this is one of the only graphic novels I've found centered on sports.  Dashiell and her sister Arica are at a new school, and this one has a championship-level baseball team.  Good news for Dashiell, a talented softball player... until the inevitable drama arises because she's a girl playing on a "boys" team.  While Arica's trying to fit in, Dashiell's making waves.  Add in some boy-girl drama, and everything gets a little complicated.  But it's all okay in the end!  The characters and the story are sweet and satisfying even though the story doesn't have much surprise factor.
