    While most kids his age are preparing to take geometry in summer school, go camping with the family or apply for a part-time job at the shopping mall, 17-year-old Matt Durkin is heading overseas with his pitcher's glove. The Willow Glen High School student was handpicked as one of 18 Americans who will spend 16 days playing baseball in Japan and China. It is part of an exchange organized by Area Code Baseball Games, a 13-year-old organization that picks the best players in the country for the program. The American players will compete against the best young baseball players from Japan and China in the Japan-USA Goodwill Series.   More
