Once upon a time, there was a young boy named Tim who loved playing baseball. He was the best shortstop on his team and could catch every ball that came his way.
One day, Tim was playing in a big game and the other team had a powerful batter. The ball flew high up in the air and Tim said to himself, "I got this!" He ran as fast as he could and jumped up high to catch the ball.
Everyone was amazed at what Tim had done. Tim’s coach says, "Great job, Tim! You are the best shortstop I have ever seen!" Tim felt proud of himself and smiled from ear to ear.
From that day on, Tim was known as the shortstop who could catch anything!
