<p>GAZI: THE DESIGNATED RUNNER is the hilarious and heart lifting true story of Sharon Esther Lampert - the tall and skinny girl who walked onto a baseball field and shocked two Baseball Hall of Fame coaches: Wilma Briggs and Jean Harding of the 1953 American Girls' Baseball League.</p><p></p><p>Sharon arrives at "Baseball for Women" with exactly two skills: she can hit a ground ball past third base and run to first, and she can catch the ball on second for an out. That's it. No power swing. No long throw. No baseball player body.</p><p></p><p>The Hall of Fame coaches take one look at her and say, "You don't play baseball." What they really mean is, "You can't play baseball."</p><p></p><p>But Sharon proves them wrong.</p><p></p><p>With her brand new lefty mitt, her gazelle speed legs, and her unstoppable determination, she becomes the one player the whole team depends on - the Designated Runner. When the strongest hitter smashes home runs but can't run the bases, Sharon runs them all.</p><p></p><p>This joyful, empowering story shows children that you don't need every skill - you just need your skill. A celebration of courage, speed, and finding your place, GAZI is perfect for young readers who love sports, surprises, and true stories of triumph.</p><p></p>
