Our house became the unofficial watch party of the A's playoff games. After practice, we showered and gathered in the living room, finding the game channel. Our friends and teammates showed up, bringing snacks and drinks along for everyone to share.
Dave had called Dad to let him and Mom know that we had people over again, but this time we wouldn't need food.
"I'm honestly surprised you guys aren't there right now." Bryce said between bites of popcorn. "This could be a one time thing."
"Don't jinx them." Noah threw a pillow at Bryce's head. "The A's will make it to the World Series for years to come."
"Plus, we're going to Friday and Saturday's games." Kyle grinned.
"In DC?" Bryce's jaw dropped. He wasn't the only one.
Kyle quickly explained how we would be skipping school on Friday and flying to the east coast to watch the games. "It's a birthday gift for Jake."
