baseball

When anyone plays baseball they always want a good, hard hit. When I play baseball I try to hit the ball the left outfield because I'm a right handed batter and it's easier to swing that way. I would have to say that I would rather bat then be in the outfield because even though my arm is pretty good at throwing I would rather hit the ball. I'm not a big fan of baseball but I do like to play it with my friends when we have free time. I think the Twins are pretty good and they would have to be my favorite team. My friend and I were playing baseball together on his neighbors' lawn. He was pitching and I was batting. He threw the ball has hard and fast as he could. It flew right at my bat as I smacked it. We saw it fly over the alleyway and over the next house. We ran to find it and saw it rolling down the hill. We almost got to it when it started to turn toward a creek. I can run faster than my friend so I was closer. "If I dive for it I can catch it," I thought in my head. Now I was at legs reach. I thought about kicking it sideways before It got to the edge of the bridge and fell off the side. To late it went flying under the guardrail and went over the shallow concrete part. It landed right into the muddy gross swampy are. It was deep in mud and probably soaked. My friend and I stared right at the spot we saw it land but the sand had gone up in the water so you couldn’t see for a while until it settled. I was going to try to retrieve it but it was to far from the edge of the concrete drop off and also far from the edges. I think someone snatched it later that day or early in the morning because when we went to rescue it, it was gone. I wonder if i could get another good hit like that, I think I’m going to try.
