Introduction

This report talks about baseball games and players. It looks at how teams help their players play better.

Main Body

The Los Angeles Dodgers want to keep Shohei Ohtani healthy. He is a great pitcher. He did not let the other team score points. Now, he does not hit the ball when he pitches. This helps him rest. The Milwaukee Brewers are very good at teaching new players. Jacob Misiorowski and Kyle Harrison play very well. The team does not spend much money, but they are still strong. The New York Mets have a problem. Many players are hurt in their legs. Francisco Alvarez and other players cannot play. The team is checking their exercise plans to find the problem. Some minor league teams won and some lost. The Cannon Ballers won a big game. The Charlotte Knights and Birmingham Barons lost their games.

Conclusion

The Dodgers help one star player. The Brewers help many new players. The Mets have too many hurt players.

The 'No' Secret

In this text, we see a simple way to say something is NOT happening. We use do not or does not.

The Pattern:

  • I / You / We / They →\rightarrow do not
  • He / She / It →\rightarrow does not

From the Story:

  • The team →\rightarrow does not spend much money.
  • He →\rightarrow does not hit the ball.
  • Players →\rightarrow do not (implied by cannot play).

Quick Tip: When you use does not, the action word (verb) stays simple.

❌ He does not hits (Wrong) ✅ He does not hit (Right)
