Winning His Game by Ralph Henry Barbour audiobook.

Genre: adventure

When shy, thoughtful Dudley 'Dud' Baker arrives as a new boy at Grafton School, he quickly learns that fitting in can feel as hard as any exam. Dorm life has its own rules, reputations are made at the dining table as much as in the classroom, and Dud is painfully aware of how easily a quiet newcomer can be overlooked. Fortunately, his lively, good-humored roommate, Jimmy Logan, decides Dud is worth a little pushing and pulling into the currents of school society. Dud has one private hope: to earn a place on the baseball nine as a pitcher. As tryouts and practice games begin, he throws himself into the work of improving his control, mastering new deliveries, and keeping his nerve under the watchful eyes of coaches and older players. But the diamond is only part of the battle. A tangle of jokes, pride, and rivalries draws Dud into conflict with a self-important school favorite, and suddenly every decision seems to test his courage and character. Set in an early 20th-century boarding school, this is a story of friendship, confidence, and learning what it really means to win your game.
