I ended the year at the best player in the tee-ball league. I got a trophy for MVP and won the championship with my team. I had 2 home runs and had a ton of singles‚ doubles and

There are many reasons why I elected Maria Goretti as my saint‚ the main reason: being due to the fact‚ that in here few years of living she endured many hindrances and yet she still managed to keep a concrete spirit and keep a bosom relationship with God. At only the age of 9 she had been deprived of her father to a gruesome disease‚ malaria. I personally can’t imagine how grueling it must be to lose a parent. Not to mention‚ that they were struggling financially while her father was living‚ now

Crack! The sound of my bat hitting the ball echoed throughout the stadium. Dust went flying everywhere as I took off running towards first base. I dropped my head‚ concentrating only on putting one foot in front of the other as fast as I possibly could. Everything else seemed like a blur to me. I rounded first base‚ praying for my feet to move faster. Dust stung my eyes‚ but I couldn’t stop now. The only words I heard from my coach were‚ “Run! Run! Run!” My lungs burned‚ but again‚ I couldn’t stop

Some kids are not as fortunate as others who get trained by big time trainers. Thats where I come in at. I’ll do some training for free but for the more advanced training‚ I will charge a little fee. Basically I just want everybody to make it. Baseball is basically my life. If I could play baseball forever I would. I play baseball in college

Just give me your instant‚ reflexive reaction as to what you think that the answer to the question is. A ball and bat cost $1.10. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost? If you’re like most people‚ your immediate answer was‚ "Ten cents." And you’d be wrong. Check it out. The bat costs $1 more than the ball.
