Synopsis

Now batting third—book #3 in a brand-new early chapter book mystery series where each book is set in a different American ballpark!

It's spring break and Kate and Mike are off to Los Angeles to visit Kate's dad, a scout for the Dodgers. But all is not sunny in L.A.—strange things have been happening to Kate's dad. Pages have gone missing from his clipboard. He's gotten threatening phone calls. And he thinks he's being followed! Is someone after Mr. Hopkins's top secret scouting reports?

The L.A. Dodger includes a fun fact page about Los Angeles's Dodger Stadium.

Cross Ron Roy's A to Z mystery series with Matt Christopher's sports books and you get the Ballpark Mysteries: fun, puzzling whodunnits aimed at the younger brothers and sisters of John Feinstein's fans.

Cute mystery series......more

Goodreads review by Donald

I have to confess, even though this is a book for kids, I quite enjoyed it! And I actually learned two things about the Dodgers (my favorite team!) that I didn't know - #1 why the Dodgers' dugout is along the third base side, and #2 why the seats in Dodger Stadium are colored the way that they are.......more

Goodreads review by Mayra

Great children's book in the mystery genre. The fact that the series is baseball-themed is so interesting. Especially if you have students who love sports. I also liked the storyline and the friendship between Kate and Mike.......more

My four-year-old loves these as bed-time books. Gotta say, this was the best one we've read.......more
