  Next day was Sunday. An exciting day for Rocky and Colt. Since it was Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas were doing nothing but being home with their boy's. They were all just being lazy until the 1pm.
,, Rocky. We have to get ready and be at school in an hour. '' Colt reminded Rocky who was laying in his bed reading a book.
  Rocky closed his book and set it aside and went to make himself ready.
   Minutes flew by, and Mr. Douglas was taking Rocky and Colt to school. They had to be there at 2pm and the whole thing started at 3. So only one hour left for concentration.
  Rocky and Colt met their team in the boys locker room.
  At almost 3pm, Uncle Douglas blew the whistle once ,, Alright. Listen up. Now, we all know we haven't been playing for a while and now that we have to go against our own classmates or own pupils. But remember. We are doing this for ourselves. For our body. For our soul to feel good out there, and in the running fresh air and movements. We're not doing this because we hate the other's. '' Uncle Douglas said.
   Colt thought to himself , Okay, but I hate Josh Cavanaugh. Does this mean we both have to leave then? '
  The Dragons were all wearing orange shirt with a big black D on the chest and their number on the back, and white jeans.
,, Now. Let's get out there, and, show them what we got! '' Uncle Douglas finished.
,, Yeah! '' The Dragons yelled.
  The Dragons ran out onto the field. After that the Mustangs came out running into the field too. And both teams stood in a line standing next to each other.
  Mr. and Mrs. Douglas and Grandpa were sitting in the crowd too. Tumtum was sitting between his mother and Grandpa.
  Rocky looked around to see if he could find Emily there somewhere. Nope. She wasn't sitting with her parents. She was with her cheering girls, standing next to the field on the other side.
  Emily caught Rocky looking at her and she smiled at him. Rocky smiled back.
,, Welcome, Everyone. To our very new this month's once again Oak Park High Baseball practice game! '' Principal Portillo spoke through the microphone.
  Everyone cheered and applaused.
,, But first, let me introduce you to our teams. The Dragons! ''
Everyone applaused.
,, And the Mustangs! ''
  The crowd cheered once again.
,, Now let me say to my loving people here who came to see their children play. I know that you all see that we weren't able to play against other High Schools here at our country because they won't attend to. Now, that we made it up like this, let's see how it goes!''
   Everyone nodded and applaused.
,, And our coaches. For the Dragons we have Adam Douglas. And for the Mustangs we have Leonard Collins. ''
The crowd cheered.
,, Alright then. Let's all enjoy this day and get started! '' Principal Portillo finished.
,, You heard him! Play ball! '' one dude who was the catcher behind the pitcher yelled.
  The Dragons and Mustangs all ran out on the field and took their places. It was the Mustangs turn for running and pitching, and the Dragons had to be on the outside and throw the ball at the pitcher.
  Rocky was the thrower, standing in the middle of the field. Ready to throw the ball towards the pitcher.
,, Our first pitcher from the Mustangs is Jarrell Thomas! '' principal portillo called.
  Rocky concentrated while Jarrell swung his bat back and forth. Rocky then threw the ball at Jarrell and Jarrell pitched it away.
  Jarrell begun to run to the 2nd base, while the ball came flying towards Colt. Colt missed the catch and ran after the ball rolling away.
  Colt stopped the ball from rolling and picked it up and threw it at a member named David Skye. David catched the ball, but he was to late to make Jarrell out. The Mustang gain 1 point now.
,, Nicely done boys! Our next pitcher from the Mustangs is Frank Adams! ''
  The crowd applaused.
  Frank never lost a pitch. So Rocky looked at his team from one member to the other, to see if they were ready.
  Rocky concentrated and threw the ball towards Frank and Frank pitched the ball away. The ball flew way up in the air towards Dylan (Rocky's friend). Dylan got to catch the ball and threw it back at Colt.
,, Jeffrey! '' Dylan yelled.
  Colt catched the ball and hit the base where Jarrell was about to land on.
,, Jarrell Thomas, number 6 is out! ''
,, Yes. '' Rocky smiled.
  Colt smiled and threw the ball back at Rocky.
,, You're gonna get it back. Trust me. '' Jarrell looked angry at Colt.
  Colt ignored Jarells saying and went back to his spot. And Jarell had to go way back to the beginning.
,, Our next pitcher is number 2, Austin Gilbert! ''
  The crowd cheered.
  Austin wasn't one of the best pitcher on the team. He was good, but not as good as Frank.
  Rocky concentrated and threw the ball at Austin. Austin missed this one.
,, One strike! '' Principal portillo yelled.
  The ball came back to Rocky and Rocky threw the ball back to Austin. Austin lost again. 
,, 2 strikes! One more strike, then the Dragons are coming in! ''
  Rocky repeat throwing the ball once again, but Austin lost.
,, 3 strikes! And that means, the teams must switch! '' principal Portillo said.
  The Dragons and the Mustangs switched places.
  Austin and Colt passed each other ,, Don't get to serious, little horsey. '' Austin said.
,, Yeah. There ain't enough hay for you at the end anyway. '' Josh Cavanaugh added.
  Colt became angry.
,, Whatever Colt. Come on. Don't listen to them. '' Rocky said.
,, They're just jealous of you. '' Justin came walking back with Colt.
,, Jealous of what? '' Colt wondered.
,, I don't know. Can't really tell. But there is something that you have that they don't have. Believe me. I see it myself. They're not even worth it. '' Justin said.
  Colt smiled a bit and tried to forget about the Mustangs.
  So the Dragons and the Mustangs had switched places and everyone took their spot.
,, Our first from the Dragons is number 4, Dylan Portillo! ''
  The crowd applaused.
,, And our thrower from this round, from the mustangs is Josh Cavanaugh!''
  Josh threw the ball at Dylan and Dylan pitched the ball away. Dylan dropped the bat and ran towards his first base.
,, Nice pitch Dylan! It's flying towards the south! ''
  Frank Adams catched the ball, but Dylan already landed on his first base. Frank threw the ball back to Josh.
,, Our next pitcher is number 7 Samuel Douglas! ''
  The crowd cheered.
,, Come on Rocky! '' Tumtum yelled from the crowd.
  Josh threw the ball at Rocky and Rocky pitched the ball hard away.
,, Up it goes! Nice hit Samuel! '' Rocky dropped his bat and ran to his first base. Dylan got to his 3rd and Rocky could run to his 2nd base too!
  Now it was Colts turn to pitch.
,, Our 3rd pitcher is number 14, Jeffrey Douglas! ''
,, Yay! '' Mrs. Douglas cheered.
  Colt had always problems with pitching the ball. Especially when one of his biggest enemies was the thrower this time.
  Colt went to the base and picked the bat up.
,, Alright Colt. Come on. You can do it!'' Rocky yelled and clapped his hands.
  Colt digged a little hole with his right foot and stuck it into it.
,, Don't dig so deep. You're only gonna be here for one pitch. '' Austin said, who was guarding to catch the ball.
  Colt swung his bat and tried to ignore Austin's perfect speech.
  Josh threw the ball at Colt and Colt missed it and fell down to the ground. Austin untied Colts shoes while Colt laid on the ground. Colt stood back up and wanted to retry.
,, Halt! Your shoes are untied son! '' a guard warned who was helping catching the ball behind the pitcher.
  Colt took his helmet off and bent down to tie his shoe. While Colt tied his shoe, Austin put some hands full of dirt into Colts helmet, and Colt didn't notice it!
  Colt finished tying his shoe and put his helmet back on and dirt was covering his whole face and body.
  Some of the bullies laughed.
  Colt took his helmet off quickly and looked angry at Austin.
,, Colt! Strict and restray. Control!'' Grandpa yelled from the crowd.
  Colt put his helmet back on and swung his bat back and forth.
  Josh threw the ball and hit Colts head. Colt fell to the ground again, with Josh laughing. The whole crowd of people gasped and stood up.
  Colt stood up quickly and broke the bat into half with his leg.
,, Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Don't! Don't do it Jeffrey! '' Mr. Douglas called from the crowd.
  Colt walked up to Josh, but Austin came running behind him and grabbed his legs and they both fell down.
,, Scramble!!! '' Tumtum yelled.
  The whole crowd and all team members ran into the field and begun to fight.
,, Principal Portillo! Do something!''
  Principal Portillo unplug all wires for the microphone connection. And a big loud siran went through the field.
  Everyone in the field stopped fighting and moving and covered their ears with their hands.
