I had the idea for this while watching baseball on TV with my family. I hope you enjoy it. Sorry if some characters are OOC. Please review and tell me your feedback! The popularity of this story will determine how fast I update. Enjoy!

Also, this chapter is mainly introductions. I promise the action will pick up in the next chapter.

Disclaimer: I only own the plot line. Goes for all chapters.

Annabeth's POV

"Welcome to Brunner's Field for Opening Day! The New York Titans playing against the San Francisco Spartans! Make sure to stop by the official Titan gift shop located at the South entrance of the stadium!" I rolled my eyes as the automated announcer continued to list the stock of the over-priced gift shop.

"Isn't this great, Annie!" my best friend, Thalia, screamed at me. With her spiky black hair, electric blue eyes, and black combat boots, she was almost the complete opposite of me and my blond curly hair and grey eyes. We were like sisters though and practically inseparable. In a month, Thaila was marrying Luke Castellan, heir to the famous Hermes Packaging Industry.

"Jeez Thals, calm down. And my name is Annabeth."

"Whatever. Oh, look! Piper and the rest of the gang are here!" Thalia and I walked over to where the rest of our friends were waiting for us.

"This is going to be one awesome bachelorette party!" Piper smiled at Thalia. Piper McLean, daughter of actor Tristan McLean, had been our best friend since third grade. Despite her model-like looks, Piper was a tomboy at heart. Boys still drooled at her in her jeans and Dora T-shirt. Her brown hair was braided, and her kaleidoscope eyes changed from blue to brown.

"I love you like a sister, Thalia, but seriously? A baseball game?" Silena, the girly-girlest one of us sighed. At twenty-four, Silena Beauregard was named 'Hottest Model of the Century'. Despite her popularity, she was pretty down to earth and still made time for her friends. She was attracting attention in her silky white blouse and dark skinny jeans. Black hair cascaded down her back, and her dark blue eyes were sparkling.

"I love Thalia's choice of location," Clarisse replied to Silena's comment. "Baseball is the best sport ever! Well, next to hockey and football." Clarisse LaRue was a professional trainer, and she had muscles upon muscles. Her brownish-red hair was pulled into a ponytail, and she was sporting sweatpants and a navy 'Go Titans!' shirt.

The rest of our friends just rolled their eyes and started walking to our seats. Leading with her silky brown hair and green eyes, Katie Gardener, ironically, owned her own flower shop in Illinois. Following her was Reyna Quito, mayor of a city in Califorina. She was surprising single, with her obsidian eyes and midnight black hair.

I could detect the tantalizing smell of popcorn as we navigated the crowd on the stadium stairways. Burly men in lime green shirts walked up and down, trying to sell peanuts and water.

Finally, we reached our seats. Since it was a bachelorette party, we splurged on the tickets and got seats a few rows above the first base line. Thaila was grinning from ear to ear.

"They're getting ready to intrude the Titans!" Thaila screamed in my ear. It was her dream to see an actual Titans game, so she was pretty excited.

The New York Titans were the youngest baseball team to ever make it to the World Series. Ranging in ages from twenty to twenty-five, these boys were the heartthrobs of baseball. They were the reason teenaged girls suddenly tuned into the TV when their parents started watching baseball. Personally, I thought they were overrated.

"Let us introduce the starting line-up for the home team!" an announcer announced to the waiting crowd. "Catching, we have Chris Rod-riguez!" A curly-haired guy covered in armor-like padding stepped out of the dugout to screams from the crowd. "At third base, we have the one and only Stoll brother number one, Travis Stoll! Covering shortstop is the other half of this dynamic duo, Conner Stoll!" The screams from the crowd were deafening now.

The announcer forgot to mention 'major players' in his desciption of the Stoll brothers. They changed girlfriends faster than they threw baseballs.

"At second base, we have the graceful and talented Jason Grace!" Thalia stood up and starting screaming along with the crowd. Jason was her half-brother, but he never really made time to see Thalia.

"Covering first base, we have the black-haired, water-loving, Percy Jackson!" A group of girls next to me suddenly stood up and starting yelling, "OMG! I love you PERCY!" and "MARRY ME JACKSON!" Wow, just wow. He wasn't even that attractive. His messy hair was always in his face, so I could never see his eyes. Suspicious.

"In right field, we have the musically talented Will Solace! And in left field, we have his best friend, the handyman Jake Mason!" Two guys ran out to their positions and waved happily to the crowd. "Standing out there at center field is Leo Valdez!" Leo smiled at the camera and made call me motions with his hands.

Beside me, Reyna rolled her eyes, "Such a jerk."

"And last but not least, we have the mysterious Nico di Angelo pitching!" Thalia squealed in glee as a skinny guy walked to the mound and starting practicing.

"Isn't he hot?" Thaila asked me. "He loves rock bands, just like me! I would marry him in a heartbeat." The announcer started to list the starting line-up for the other team, but I didn't really pay attention to it.

"Um, Thals, is that appropriate to say when you are getting married in a month?" I asked her.

"It's not like I'll ever meet him. What's wrong with having a crush on a superstar?" I was about to reply when the National Anthem came on. All of us stood up for the duration of the song, then sat back down for the opening pitch.

"Let's play ball," the umpire motioned for the batter to advance to the plate. Nico wound up and pitched the ball.

"ST-RIKE!" the umpire yelled as the batter swung, but missed the ball. After two more pitches with the same result, the batter trudged back to his dugout.

"One out," the umpire informed everyone. Another person came up to bat, and hit a ball toward center field. Leo slid and caught the ball, resulting in two out of three outs.

The next batter walked, and the one after him hit a single. The Titans now had people on second and first base. The next person came up to bat and hit a ball towards first base. Percy easily fielded it and concluded the first half of inning one.

Jason started the Titans' batting by getting a double. Next up, Chris, struck out. Travis got a single, putting Jason at third base.

And then the famous home run hitter, Percy, came up to the plate. He lazily swung on the first ball, sending it flying into the stands. Home run.

The score stayed 3-0 for the next couple of innings. Around the fifth inning, Piper and I left to get lunch for everyone. I'm not sure you could call it lunch when all I ate was cotton candy, popcorn, peanuts, and snow cones.

We all sang along to "Take me out to the Ballgame!" at the seventh inning stretch. Then we had a second lunch which consisted of Cracker Jacks and soda.

It was the bottom of the eighth inning, and I was relaxing in my plastic chair. Thalia was still watching the game intently, muttering things to herself whenever the Titans made a bad play. Reyna and Clarisse were talking about different kinds of warm-up routines, and Piper, Silena, and Katie were chatting about our plans this afternoon.

Percy Jackson was up to bat, again. He gave a cocky grin to the cameras and got in position to hit the ball.

"Ball," the umpire announced. The pitcher pitched the ball again.

Percy swung and the ball soared toward foul territory. In fact, it was heading in our direction. Thalia excitedly spoke to me.

"Wouldn't it be cool if I caught a Titan baseball?" I nodded.

That's the last thing I remember before I felt a thump on my temple. I saw Thalia's concerned face as everything faded to black.
