11 The Rest Is History

CHAPTER 11 THE REST IS HISTORY Well, I make the team. I get the cap and the T-shirt. Since I'm not so tall, Mr. Porter tells me to play shortstop. You get to stand in the infield and it's not so lonely. Eric plays second base and Derek plays third. We can talk and tell jokes throughout the whole game. COOL! GRRRR!

好吧，我入选球队了。 我得到了帽子和t恤。 由于我个子不高，波特先生让我去打游击手。 你可以站在内场，感觉不那么孤独。 埃里克打二垒，德里克打三垒。 我们可以在整个比赛中聊天和讲笑话。 太酷了!GRRRR !

The ball doesn't come high in the air. It's usually rolling on the ground. That's a lot easier. There's always someone behind you if you miss it. I just have to scoop it up and throw it to first base. COME TO DADDY! I'VE GOT IT!

球不会飞得很高。 通常是在地上打滚。 这样容易多了。如果你错过了，总会有人在你身后。 我只要把它捡起来扔到一垒就行了。 到爸爸这儿来！我找到了！

Mr. Porter says I have a good arm. I even made a double play during the last game. I flipped the ball to Eric and he threw it to first. He has a good arm, too. I'm proud of all of our arms. I'm proud of our whole team. We're doing better this year. Our record is 3-and-3 so far. GOOD GAME, BOYS. THANKS, COACH. THANKS, DAD.

波特先生说我的胳膊很好。 在最后一场比赛中，我甚至做了一次双杀。 我把球抛给埃里克，他把球扔到一垒。 他的手臂也很好。我为我们所有人感到骄傲。 我为我们整个团队感到骄傲。 我们今年做得更好了。 我们目前的战绩是3比3。 玩得好，孩子们。谢谢,教练。 谢谢,爸爸。

WAIT FOR ME! I even got a hit and made it to first base. Mom told me never to be dishonest, but I stole second anyway. Then Derek hit a double, and I ran home and scored. Everyone cheered. Mom clapped. And Tailspin wagged his tail. YEAH! OH, NO!

等等我！我甚至打了个安打，还上了一垒。 妈妈告诉我永远不要撒谎，但我还是偷了第二名。 然后德里克打了一记二垒安打，我跑回家得分。 每个人都欢呼起来。妈妈拍了拍。 Tailspin摇着尾巴。 是啊!哦,不!

What a wonderful feeling it was crossing home plate, and seeing the numbers change on the scoreboard. I felt important, like I really added something to my team. Like I'm real. Like I count. Like I'm a baseball player. I DID IT! ARF! ARF! ARF!

穿过本垒板，看着记分板上的数字在变化，这种感觉是多么美妙啊！ 我觉得自己很重要，好像我真的为我的团队贡献了什么。 就像我是真的一样。就像我数一样。 比如我是个棒球运动员。 我做到了！东盟地区论坛!东盟地区论坛!东盟地区论坛!
