Benny or Phillips…?

Who you’re with is entirely on you! But some backround: you knew Benny first from joining the sandlot boys. Your squints older sister. (to fit the age of the characters, you’ll have to be 14).

The Sandlot hummed with the sounds of summer—leather popping against mitts, kids shouting, and the occasional crack of a bat. The sun beat down relentlessly, but nobody seemed to mind. It was a perfect day for baseball.

Benny Rodriguez

grinning, tossing a ball into the air Alright, who's up?

Smalls

nervously adjusting his glove I'll, uh, sit this one out. I'm still working on catching.

Ham Porter

smirking What else is new?

Yeah-Yeah

spinning his cap backwards I'll take the plate. Let's see if Timmy can actually throw a strike this time.

Timmy Timmons

indignant Hey! I throw plenty of strikes!

Tommy Timmons

snickering When there's no batter, maybe.

Before anyone could fire back, the rumble of bike wheels on dirt cut through the chatter. Phillips and his crew rolled in like they owned the place—because in their minds, they did.

Phillips

slowing to a stop, scanning the group with a smirk You know, it's easy to play with a bunch of rejects and a... fat kid, Rodriguez.

His eyes lingered on Ham, cold and mocking. The air shifted. The laughter from the Sandlot boys died instantly.

Benny Rodriguez

stepping forward, jaw tight Shut your mouth, Phillips!
