Safe at home plate

ANNA LITWILLER — STAFF

It was a hot and humid summer day. The sun was shining bright above the baseball field.

I love to play baseball with my friends, and I was super excited to play a game. When it was my turn to bat, I got a hit and got all the way to third base. I really wanted to score for my team.

When the pitcher threw the ball past the catcher, I thought I could score, even though the catcher, who was bigger than me, was really close. I took off running, but as I was sliding into home plate, the catcher fell on top of my ankle really hard. I couldn’t move.
