Saving Box: A Short Story
Yes! I thought to myself. I was waiting all my life for this moment to happen I just couldn’t believe it was happening right now all thanks to our vacation saving box. And I even got this one on my own I was so thrilled I even got one and all I had to do was ask. I couldn't believe I was even here for my first time! And I got 3 baseballs and the game didn't even start yet!

The game is about to start I couldn’t wait I could hear the vendors call out “ hotdogs “ “peanuts” now I knew the game was about to start. We were sitting in right field and that’s where a lot of players like to hit at. GO TIGERS!!

The first inning started and the batter went to the plate the batter threw the pitch I will never forget the sound the gove makes when the

    At one minute after midnight, the Red Sox closed out the Yankees 10-3 in Game 7 when Ruben Sierra grounded out to second base. Nothing whacky happened. No ball through someone's legs, no errant throw, no sudden breeze from the supposed ghosts of Yankee Stadium. Just a simple throw by Pokey Reese to first and the Red Sox were the American League champions.…

    Baseball Memoir

    “GET HOME!!! GET HOME!!!” Those were the words my dad would yell from the third base coach’s box as I passed him rounding third! Baseball to me is more than just a game! Baseball is a passion, fueled by the desire to succeed, the passion to overcome, and the dedication to be great. A baseball field to me is like a stage is to a dancer or an open road for a biker; I just love every aspect of this amazing sport. It’s the field with its seemingly unfair depth, its soft green grass and the infamous red dirt, that make me have the passion for the game like my father did as a child. My life seemed to be limitless when I was in between that fence. Taking cuts on the tee, putting together a pickup game that didn’t matter who won or lost, or even on those days that practice seemed to never end, I still had the love for the game.…

    I had just finished my freshman year of high school, now playing on my school’s summer baseball team. It was a perfect summer night on the baseball field; playing against one of the teams I disliked the most, Ava. It was always a close game playing them; they had good players who always played hard. Going into the 7th inning the game was tied, three to three. I came up to the plate wanting to help my team win the game. As the pitch came in my eyes lit up, it was a fastball right down the middle. I swung and hit the ball into left field.…

    I got to my team's field and saw the perfectly chalked batter's box and baselines. I went into to the dugout and saw the lineup and I was batting first! I had the same excitement in this moment as I do every time I get a king size crunch bar on Halloween. I started to warm up and I felt good. Game Time was coming up but it felt like forever. I was getting the feeling that you get when you put a hot pocket in the microwave and your are waiting for that very very long minute. The ump told us to go to the dugouts and we knew it was game time. I got my helmet and batting gloves on and grabbed my bat. I took a couple swings in the on deck circle then I stepped into the batter's box. I swung at the first pitch and heard a sweet pop off my bat and watched my line drive hit land in front of the centerfield man and I was on first base with a leadoff single. All the nervous energy I had was…

    It took a couple minutes, but I had finally arrived to first base. I had the biggest smile on my face, I was over joyed, but after looking at my coach the smile dissapeared. When I got back to the dugout I was immediatly taken out of the game, and had to think about what I did wrong. I was only five years old, and I made one little mistake and got punished for it. Tears started running down my face, so my I had to leave the game. My parents were furoius, so their was a lot of yelling and screaming towards my coach. As I sat in the car waiting for my parents I thought to myself, "this was suppose to be what I wanted to do throughout my life. I wanted to be just like my parents, but I wasn't good enough." In that instant I relized I needed to practice more. I needed to learn more about the game.…
