Making friends in a new town is quite the chore for 12-year-old Trish who is both a math whiz and a girl baseball player. Being near perfect in both areas give her confidence but it also deters new relationships. However, team losses, baseball injuries and math competitions gone astray prevent Ben from liking her even though they have the very same interests and should be best buddies. Wise Abhi, a pal to both, steps in to the fray capitalizing on Trish and Bens strengths and weaknesses. Honing baseball skills, solving math puzzles, sprinkles of Shakespeare, and a bit of magic are blended to create a rollicking good story of true friendship.
