This was the big game. The boys were 1 and excited. It was a clear night, and my son Andy's baseball team, which had 2 all year, had shocked the better teams by making it to this championship game. The atmosphere was 3 : the other team's slugger (强击手) ,a big kid, was like a snake, dangerous and ready to 4 .
Nervously, I looked out Andy's way. I was 5 to see Andy looking straight up at the night sky! Obviously he wasn't 6 on the game. I was horrified that he wouldn't even know the ball was coming. "Come on, Andy. 7 out there," I said to myself. Thank goodness the big kid made a mistake. We (Andy and I) had been 8 and our team still led by one run.
Andy ran up to me at the 9 . I was about to 10 him when he said loudly, "Did you see that shooting star?" Andy's eyes were glowing (发光) with 11 I paused. "Yes." I said. "Well one inning (局) to go. Hit a homerun (全垒打) !Okay!" said Andy, and her an back to his 12 .
I suddenly realized it was nice my son would take timeout to 13 the wonder and beauty in life. You might be surprised by the beauty you can find when you least 14 it. Andy hit a triple (三垒打) in that last inning But I still wish I had 15 that shooting star, too.
