Curveball: The Year I Lost My Grip is a book written by Jordan Sonnenblick. It is the story of Peter Friedman and the year he injures his elbow, making him never able to pitch on his baseball team again. It is also the same year that his grandfather develops Alzheimer's disease. His best friend AJ, still a star baseball player himself, keeps reminding Peter of his loss. The one bright spot is his new cute girlfriend Angelika and the gift of his grandfather's photography equipment.
