Everyone started to come into the dining room at once. Dave and Kyle carried in dishes full with food and laid them out, while Noah and Zeke came down the stairs. Mrs. Atkins sat down at the other end of the table and directed the twins on where to set down the dishes. Noah sat beside me, while Dave squeezed on the end next to Mrs. Atkins. Zeke quietly sat down next to Jeremy and Kyle took the last empty seat.
Everyone filled up their plate and started to eat.
"The A's are looking really good so far." Dave said. "I really think we'll be making the playoffs this year."
"Without a doubt!" Noah agreed easily. "Maberry will be back in action after the all-star break too." He looked at Jeremy. "Do you know how he's doing?"
Jeremy nodded. "He comes to every home game. I heard he'll be starting some rehab with our athletic training staff."
"Would he bat before you or after you?" Noah asked.
Jeremy shrugged. "That's a decision for the manager."
