Jason and the Baseball Bear by Dan Elish

Jason and the Baseball Bear by Dan Elish. Jason Munson is the only fourth-grade ballplayer on the Apaches, but he rides the bench-until his batting average shoots sky high, thanks to the coaching advice of his friend Whitney, a polar bear at the city zoo. Whitney has made himself a baseball maven by collecting baseball cards and reading the sports pages of newspapers he has rescued from the trash. Among Whitney's companions are a gnu, a hissing but harmless python, and a rambunctious gorilla.
