Rocky was a big baseball fan.

He lived in
Philadelphia, but was originally from Los
Angeles. He made sure to go watch the
Dodgers every time they played the
Phillies. Rocky will never forget the last
game he saw at Citizen's Bank
Ballpark, which is where the Phillies play.
It started off as a normal game for
Rocky. He sat out in the stands with his
girlfriend. He was fully dressed as a Dodgers
fan. He had a Dodgers hat, jersey, and
shirt. As the game came to the seventh
inning, which is the seventh inning
stretch and everyone starts singing "Take
me out to the Ballpark," he noticed that the
Dodgers pitcher Josh Beckett had been
pitching a no-hitter. A no-hitter is when a
pitcher doesn't allow a player on the other
team to get a hit. Rocky got
excited, because he never would have
thought he would see a no-
hitter, especially the Dodgers pitch a no-
hitter.
Rocky was holding on to his beer, but he
wasn't drinking it. He was watching the
baseball game very closely. His girlfriend
would talk, but he wouldn't listen. As Beckett
threw the final pitch, Rocky held his
breath. He saw that it was a strike and
jumped out of his chair. He even spilled
some of his beer on his girlfriend, but she
didn't care. She was happy as well. Rocky
was thrilled. He started yelling loudly. He
celebrated with other Dodger fans that were
there and drank the rest of his beer.
When he got home, Rocky turned on the
television. He put the highlights of the
game on ESPN and saw that he had come
out on television. His girlfriend saw it and
was excited. It was the best ending to the
best baseball game he had ever been to.
