A Bad Sport

A Bad Sport

Coach Biggs, the Miners’ coach, stomped onto the field. The Loggers’ coach ran onto the field too. “ Let my players go, Hitz! ” Coach Biggs said. “ And then get out of here! You’re a cheater and a bad sport! ” Fitz Hitz puffed out his chest. “ I’m a winner! ”

“ I have to arrest Fitz Hitz! ” Roxy thought. She started to fly down. But then she heard fans yelling at Coach Biggs. “ Let Hitz play, Coach! ” a fan shouted. She wore a Miners baseball cap. “ Yeah! ” Another fan said. His face was painted with the Miners’ colors. “ You shouldn’t have kicked Hitz off the team! ”

Fans chanted. “ Let Hitz play! Let Hitz play! ” Coach Biggs threw his hands in the air. “ Fine! ” He stomped off the field. The Loggers’ coach shrugged. “ You want to finish the game with just one player？ Fine! We’re already winning anyway. ”

Hitz stepped up to the plate. Sparks shot from his Blast Bat. The Loggers’ pitcher threw the ball. Hitz swung. Crack—pow! The ball shot through the air like a meteor. Roxy’s eyes went wide. “ That’s a powerful bat! ” “ Home run! ” the announcer said.

“ Yeah! A home run for me! ” Hitz cheered for himself as he ran around the bases. He stepped up to the plate again. Crack—pow! The ball smashed a big screen. Roxy gasped. But the crowd cheered. “ Another home run for the Miners! ” the announcer said.
