Fast Pitch

Britt-Marie, Laury, Shenice, and several teammates plan to check the house for the lost glove. The teammates provide a robot that can see in the dark and can travel through the house for them. Britt-Marie gets her brother to drive and help them break the newly secured wooden board covering the door, because if he does not, then Britt-Marie will tell his parents about how he smokes and rides around with many girls in the back seat of his car. They guide the robot into the first bedroom, where it tips over and they lose visuals.

The team feels defeated after losing the robot in Uncle Jack’s old house. Practice is the worst their team has ever played, and Coach Nat makes them run laps for their poor performance. Britt-Marie wants to know if there is a way to help their teammates, but Shenice does not see one.

A few days later, Shenice’s parents inform her that Jack is returning to the hospital and is not expected to live much longer. Shenice makes the difficult choice to return to Jack’s old house rather than visit him before he passes. Shenice convinces her mom to take her to practice, and since she is early—which her mom does not realize—she enters the house and searches for the missing robot and the hidden panel Jack mentioned.
