Summary "The Lucky Seventh" by Ralph Henry Barbour is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers on the journey of a group of young boys who come together to form a baseball team, aiming to challenge a rival team at Rutter's Point. Main characters include Gordon Merrick, a determined and athletic boy looking to bring his friends together for a common goal, and Dick Lovering, a cheerful boy who copes with his disability as he manages the team. At the start of the story, Gordon is deep in thought when he accidentally gets splashed by a watering cart while cycling, which prompts him to visit his friend Dick. The two discuss a letter from another friend proposing they form a baseball team to challenge a local rival. As they brainstorm the lineup and team name, we see the camaraderie between the boys and their enthusiasm for the upcoming baseball season. The opening sets the tone for the book, focusing on themes of friendship, teamwork, and overcoming challenges. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
