When you play baseball,you should stretch before every game.

When she did,she got a stomachache.
Amy says that the night before a game,
you should eat foods like spaghetti and bread.
The morning of a game,you should eat foods like toast and fruit for breakfast.
There can be accidents in a baseball game.
So you should always wear a helmet on your head when you go to hit the ball.

He is at the pool every morning at six o'clock and swims for ninety minrtes.
After that,he starts his school day.
