Foreign Pitch (The Milo Reyes Series, Book 2) The air is thin. The tackles are dirty. And the whole world is watching. Milo Reyes has gone from the Oak Creek blacktop to the Apex Academy, but nothing has prepared him for Guadalajara. Now co-captain beside his old rival Dee Marchetti, Milo is headed to Mexico for an international youth tournament. The opponents play like their families' futures depend on every match, and the stadium is packed with drums, scouts, and five thousand feet of altitude that leaves most Americans gasping. For Milo, it's more than a tournament. His father hasn't been home to Jalisco in fifteen years, and a hand-stitched pair of boots, a folded map from Coach Beto, and a little sister's one big request are riding with Milo across the border. On the field, he has to learn to play through the grabbing, shoving, and mind games without losing the vision that makes him special. Off the field, he's about to discover where his family comes from. Fast, heartfelt, and full of match-day tension, Foreign Pitch is a story about leading when you're far from home, and about the people who carry you there. Perfect for readers who love underdog sports stories, strong family bonds, and soccer from the inside.
