This book was amazing and it had so many sweet moments.  The characters were written so beautifully and I loved them so much.  I might not know anything about baseball but this book had me so invested.  I loved it so much.  The queer and trans rep was so comforting to read and I really liked the found family tropes.

While there was a bit of mentioned with Luis and Gene’s history in college there isn’t much of an explanation, and they kinda rush into being friends again pretty suddenly.  Their dynamic was really cute though, Gene being an optimistic ray of sunshine and Luis being the shadow of anxiety in the corner of a room.
