The Sandlot takes place in no spectacular Elysium, but in nothing else than a little town in Utah. In the middle of this typical town sits the Sandlot. The Sandlot creates the impression of an ancient tired field where the blue collar boys play baseball on. The field mean much more than a regular old field to the boys who play on it. The Sandlot means the beginning of many long lasting friendships. Also every player who plays on that field knows of the ferocious “Beast” that takes its claim on many baseballs over the left field

Throughout her personal essay, “Not Like the Movie,” Melisa-Maurice P. Janse van Rensburg uses pathos to demonstrate the disparity between her romanticized fantasy of becoming a nurse and the hard-hitting reality of what being a nurse entails. She draws readers in with a warm tone, nostalgically describing how her dream of becoming a nurse, spawned from an “old black-and-white movie” that she watched in her childhood (Rensburg 370). She engages readers by drawing upon her relatable experience as a typical college student in Cape Town, South Africa. However, the tone of the essay dramatically changes when she describes the life-changing experience of aiding in the aftermath of the “St. James Church massacre;” the moment when her “reality shifted

Only being the bat boy, Stanton had to bring his equipment to the ballpark everyday and go hit in the batting cages before the team showed up. Stanton thought to himself, “Why is coach asking me to swing in batting practice today? He has never done that once since I became the bat boy.” Stanton walked back onto the field and stepped into the batter’s box. Before Stanton even took a swing, he looked at the beautiful Marlins Park. Straight ahead was the bright, colorful outfield walls that were painted green. Stanton soaked in the atmosphere. While the batting practice pitcher went to throw the first pitch to Stanton, Johnny Field, the Marlins seventh round draft pick said, “Come on coach! You’re giving the bat boy a couple swings? Ha-ha that’s funny.” Just as Field finished his sentence, Scotty Stanton crushed the first pitch he saw into the left-center field gap, landing at an estimate four hundred feet. Coach Mattingly said, “Sit your ass down Field, we should have drafted this kid over you!” Stanton gave Mattingly a smile. Stanton continued to punish balls, smashing them all over Marlins Park. To others, it was just batting practice, but to Stanton, it meant more. It felt as if he had the game of baseball back in his life. When Stanton’s round was over, the Marlins players were impressed, besides the envious Johnny Field. One Marlins player even told Mattingly that this kid needs to be in the lineup. Mattingly

The sun has risen and a young boy jumps out of bed with excitement, as he knows today he gets to go to his first professional baseball game. His father had bought him the tickets for his birthday months ago, and the boy had been counting down the days ever since. He put on his favorite ‘Cleveland Indians’ shirt, and ran downstairs to eat his yogurt and waffles for breakfast. As he ate, his mother saw him happily drawing Jacob’s Field, using his brown crayon to put the finishing touches on the base paths. The boy had a penchant attitude for baseball, as it was the first game his father ever taught him to play, and because of that, he would play whenever he could; with rocks and a stick, with his friends in the yard, and in his head when he
