The Perfect Swing

It was a beautiful day to play baseball.

The sky was blue, sun was shining and the grass was green.

Today was the day The Tigersharks took on their arch rivals the Dolphins.

It was three hours before the game as fourteen year old Billy Sullivan arrives at at the field.

He always was at the field three hours before the game to practice.

After all he did have the most perfect swing in all of New York.

*Billy's pov*

"Ah what a perfect day to play the sport I love." He said to himself.

"The sky is blue and the field looks great."

"I better start practicing. after all we can't afford to lose today."

*One hour till game time*

*still Billy's pov*

"Hey coach! What's going on?" I said.

"Nothing much Billy. Did you bring your perfect swing today because where going to need it. Guess who's pitching."

"Who?" I said

"David Murphy the best pitcher in the state." he said.

Sadly, David used to be on our team. but most important he used to be my friend.

We used to do every thing together but when he started playing for the dolphins he's change.

For me this is more than just a game to get into the states it's personal to me.

"Oh great." I said

"Why does everyone make such a big deal out of him? He's just another player who happens to pitch really well" I said

"Billy only if I knew the answer to that question." coach said

"Whatever I said let's get ready to win today." i said confidently

*game time*

"Alright guys we have worked to hard for this to slip away from us lets win today!" I said

"We're home so Mike you better throw well. are you guys ready?"

"Yea!" the whole team said

"Than lets win today!"

As we took the field I take a good hard look at David. Just thinking how much he's changed."

I just have to focus in the task at hand and that was to get to the championship.

The inning starts off great for us. Mike struck out the side and it was our turn to bat.

Our lead off hitter Alex walked.

Than our second batter Frankie singles into right to move Alex to third.

Our third hitter worked a walk and it was my true to get a piece of David.

The first pitch "strike one." The ump said loudly

The second pitch was right in my zone so I swing and miss that was strike two.

The next three pitches where low and away so I worked the count to three two.

So their was a three two count on me witch was good and bad.

It was good because that was my favorite count when I was batting.

It was bad because I was in a two strike hole.

David threw the pitch and it hit me square in the face.

At that moment I fell to the ground and the whole field went black......
