The Catch

It was opening day and I was there to watch it I got some snacks and sat down to watch the game. When Matt Holliday came up I saw him look right at me then when the pitch came he slugged at it and it came flying at me. I stood up and reached my hand out and grabbed the ball I caught it I couldn’t believe it I ran to the dugout and got it signed and put it in a box after that I continued watching the game in awe. It was the best day of my life.

The Big Catch

    I was so excited! For my birthday my parents had gotten me tickets to go to a Cardinal game! I had waited forever to get tickets! On the day of the game I put on my baseball t-shirt and I brought my lucky baseball glove. As I was on the car ride there I thought about how awesome it would be if Matt Holiday(my favorite baseball player) hit the ball to where I was sitting and I caught it. During the first quarter Matt Holiday hit the ball towards where I was sitting! Without thinking I reached up with my glove and the ball went PLOP into my glove!

I Caught IT!!!!!

“Wow really dad?!” I exclaimed. “ Oh yah, for sure buddy! And you know who is going to be there?” “Who?” “Matt Holliday!” Me and my dad went to the.

It was the 3rd inning. Matt holliday was up to bat pitched the ball… Pow!!! He struck the ball. It was going farther, farther, farther. It looked like it was actually coming toward me! The baseball finally came. It was two chairs above me rolling down the stairs. I wanted that baseball so badly that I even crawled over the people sitting next to me. Yes, yes, yes I can’t wait to tell my friends at school, I thought to myself as I crawled. I finally reached the end… “Ahhh!!!” I fell off of the chair. I got the ball. But at that moment I didn’t care about the ball. All I cared about was that I was Falling down the stairs!

I did end up having a broken arm. I also ended up getting the ball. But falling down the stairs was worth it.

I could tell the game was about to begin, the players were starting to line up for the national anthem. Ounce I finally sat down, the game began. I could feel everyone in crod was ancy and excited. It was Matt holidays first time up {moments later} I could see the ball fly across the stadium and thought that out of the 100's of people in the stadium that their was no way that I was going to catch the ball. As I took I bite of my dip and dots I realized the ball was going towards the area I was sitting in. I looked behind me and saw a big dude running towards it. Ounce it was about a meter away I begin to jump high to catch the ball.
