With the all-star team Have you ever seen two girls play baseball on an otherwise all-boys baseball team? Well, this was my best summer. We all traveled over to the Down East area to play our game against the Smyrna team. We were the Pamlico Babe Ruth Baseball all-star team, and this year Pamlico had two girls representing them as part of the team. The other girl, Kara, got to hit in the lineup before I did. We were all cheering and screaming, having the best time ever when she got a hit. During my second at bat, I swung the bat as hard as I could. The ball came off my bat and went speeding toward the second baseman. Pop! It hit him right in the shin, and he started crying. It was so much fun because Kara was yelling in the dugout that girls can play baseball just as well as boys can. The whole all-star team had such a fun, enjoyable summer that I will never forget it.
