The Home Run

I CAUGHT IT!!! I caught the first home run hit that Matt Holliday made this season!

The ball was ready to be pitched, Matt Holliday was at home plate, ready to swing his bat. Everybody watching the game was at the edge of their seats, not knowing what to expect. Jeremy Hellickson’s arm went back and then forward in a fast motion. Then, Matt Holliday swung the bat and it was a home run. The ball was heading towards me ! I got my hand ready, and the ball came right into my grasp ! I was then the happiest person alive.

Matt Carpenter is leading off the Cardinals for opening day!

Opening day is so important because the first game starts a new season. The first pitch on the way Matt Carpenter drives it up the middle! Kolten Wong is next with a man on first and no outs.

The pitch is under way he takes high for ball one. The next pitch is under way… oh my gosh the pitch hit him. Stephen Piscotty is up the first pitch is thrown he hammers it to shallow center. Bases are loaded now for Matt Holliday. The first two pitches are taken high 2-0. The next pitch is right down the middle but he couldn’t pull the trigger 2-1. Then next pitch is low 3-1. I hold my glove up ready for anything that comes to me. The next pitch is under way it is hammered by Matt Holliday to deep left field it’s coming to me I jump up with my glove high in the air way higher than the mod of people and I catch it. I can’t believe it I caught Matt Holliday grand slam. I knew Matt Holliday was happy but there was no way I could express how happy I was.

Ball game

Sweat was dripping from the pitcher's face. Matt holiday is up to bat. Since it is the first game of the season, the stadium is packed. Vendors are dying in the sun. I look back at the game to see the pitcher throw a fast one. Matt swings. The crowd gasps. I see the ball fly high in the sky. HOME RUN! It was off the field. Then,  something blocks my view of the sun. It’s the ball, and it’s coming right to me! I place my hands in the air, and I feel something impact my hands. I clasp it, and bring it down. I open my fingers, and see a dirty ball in my hands. :D
