With more than 1.5 million books sold, the Baseball Card Adventures series brings the greatest players in history to life!
Joe "Stosh" Stoshack has an incredible ability. He can travel through time using baseball cards. But the FBI has learned of his talent, and now they have a mission for him: go back to 1941 and warn President Roosevelt about the attack on Pearl Harbor!
Stosh is reluctant, until he finds out that his "ticket" to 1941 is a Ted Williams card. Williams was one of the greatest hitters of all time, even though he lost years of his career to serve in the Marines. How many more home runs would the Splendid Splinter have hit if he had those years back? What if Stosh can prevent the attack on Pearl Harbor and convince Williams not to serve in the military?
With black-and-white photographs and stats throughout, plus back matter separating fact from fiction, Ted & Me is the perfect mix of history and action for every young baseball fan.

- History Comes to Life: Travel back to 1941, a nation on the brink of war, where Stosh has one chance to deliver a top-secret warning about Pearl Harbor to President Roosevelt.
- An Unlikely Friendship: Team up with a young Ted Williams, one of baseball’s greatest hitters, who might be the only person who can help Stosh complete his mission.
- A Moral Dilemma: If Stosh can prevent Pearl Harbor, should he also convince Ted Williams not to serve in the military—potentially changing baseball history forever?
- Perfect for Young Baseball Fans: A thrilling mix of sports and history that makes this middle grade adventure a home run for readers ages 8-12.

Now they’ve turned up on his doorstep—and they know all about his ability to travel through time using baseball cards. In fact, they want to send him back in time on a mission: to warn President Roosevelt about the attack on Pearl Harbor!
But when Stosh finds out that his “ticket” back to 1941 is a Ted Williams card, he starts planning a mission of his own. Williams is one of the greatest hitters of all time—even though he lost almost five years of his career to serve in the Marines. How many more home runs would the Splendid Splinter have hit if he had those years back? What if Stosh can prevent the attack on Pearl Harbor and convince Williams not to serve in the military?
