The weight of the afternoon sun felt like nothing on Sam’s shoulders. He could practically taste the upcoming tryouts, each practice a step closer to realizing his goal. As he swung the bat, the wood felt like an extension of his own arm, the crack of the ball a perfect symphony in his ears. His legs pumped, devouring ground as he circled the bases, the scent of freshly cut grass filling his lungs. Even the coach's stern face didn't dampen his mood. He felt like he could lift the entire baseball field with his bare hands.
