“He ripped it! He ripped it! It’s all the way to the wall! This guy’s coming home! Jordan’s at second! Stop Jordan! Yeah!” My grandpa blared into his phone speaker. On a warm day in the Summer of 2014, I geared up to play in my last baseball game ever. My high school baseball team had squeaked into its first playoff appearance in five years and we were set to play as the underdogs in the CIF playoffs against Ventura High School. After a hard fought game, we reached the top of the last inning and…

I had practiced this so many times before, I had the drill down but I still had butterflies dancing in my stomach. The butterflies became dragonflies when the flew straight to me instead of Mario like we had practiced. With a boom the ball flew into the air and with the stadium lights shining bright, the ball took a bounce and I grabbed it. I was startled at first because I wasn't really supposed to get the ball; I panicked. “Follow me!” Mario yelled as he took the lead in front of me. The crowd…

It was the last night of winter break and I had a indoor baseball practice on the snowy night. The practice was going well as we were taking ground balls and working hitting on our swings. I was hitting in the cage and next you know, “Crack”, blood was rushing down the back of my head. Off balance, barely being able to see straight, everything was a blur. The person in the cage behind me let go of the bat and hit me in the back of the head. My coach bolted over, “Is everything ok”, he asked. I…

It was a scorching late July day in Hammond, Louisiana, and I was drenched in sweat as if I had just taken a dunk in the community pool across the park. The game was just about to begin; my team and I were eagle eyeing the opposing team, otherwise known as “The Bomb Squad.” It was so quiet that I could hear my own sweat hitting the bench. The umpire broke up everyone’s concentration by yelling, “Play Ball!” We were considered the home team, and our defense stormed the cherished diamond. After…

One day on a sunny, beautiful sunday. I woke up and was getting ready for my baseball game. At the time baseball was my favorite sport. I was one of the best players on my team. I left around ten o’clock that morning and stopped at Burger King and got some breakfast. When we got to the field my team and I went on the field and warmed up. We were ready to beat the other team. The first couple innings we were playing great. We were winning 2-0. At the top of the fourth i was playing short-stop. A…

the top; the only part of the club which a golfer actually touches. Interestingly, the design of the grip creates a direct impact of the club at the time of every shot. Grips provide traction and the confidence to swing it with losing control. The third and the last component is the club head which is fitted at the lower end. Heads are made of different materials. Larger heads provide bigger sweet spot; typically used by beginners. Club heads are made of steel, titanium and other metals. Their…

Rhetorical Home-run It’s down to the ninth inning, and Bird is last to bat. Despite her weary looks, you can tell her head is in the game. She had worked hard this season to make this final game worth the time and effort. She had long waited for this moment, and she knows she’s ready to give her all. The crowd now stands in anticipation as she makes her way up to the dirt-scuffed plate. She shakes the tension out of her hands, then confidently positions her body to the side and grips the bat.…

I was at the baseball field and it was a tuesday that night. It was cloudy with a chance of rain. I was in the dugout out and we just got done with taking grounder. I was talking with my team mate Dawson and he was having fun. Then the coach comes in and says were taking batting practice and I was pitching and Dwain,Grant,and Sam were batting. Grand came up and I thought him a few pitches and then I hit him. It may or may not been on purpose and he is bad because he wanted everyone…
