It was the second week of March on a Wednesday which is baseball practice day.
Me and some of the other teammates were wearing our black Diamond-Back shirt. “Okay guys,A it’s 5:45, start warming up,” my coach yelled.

So we started warming up and he threw a ball that I missed. I went for it and as I came back, I slipped and twisted my foot. I paused. I grabbed my right leg while wincing in pain. The right side of my foot felt like a kangaroo kicked it. “Oh mother pooper,” I slightly yelled. Isaiah came to me. “Are you okay?” He asked. “No, I twisted my foot and it hurts really bad on the right side,” I told him, “It feels like an aching pain right in the middle on the right side.” “Should I go get the coach?” He asked. “No, I’ll be fine,” I said.

About half way, I was still crying and I collapsed in the grass because my foot hurt so bad. My coach had called my grandpa. When he came to the baseball field, he was a bull. He started yelling at my coach asking why he made me run even though I was limping. Meanwhile, I was sitting on the bleachers with my foot aching in pain. Later, about a few days, I went to the doctor for an x-ray on my foot. They said I had a fracture in the fifth
