will MARK BRAINIEST
Read this flashback from "About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia.
I recall playing the greatest kickball game ever, back in Seaside, California, with five on each team, the score tied, and the right to shout, “We won!” at stake. The bases were loaded and Rosalind, the tiebreaker, stood at the plate, ready to kick one down Vallejo Street. Russell hurled the ball to the plate. Rosalind trotted to meet the pitch and then kicked it hard but low, straight into Russell’s hands. With the ball still in his hands, Russell calmly left the playing field, walked to our house, and went inside. No one could believe it. The greatest kickball game ever and Russell ended it without explanation.
