“I thought you were sick,” I told Dylan. I was putting some bats away. “Is getting well quick one of your new spider powers?”

“Nah, Mom just wanted me to get more sleep,” he said. “After I got up, I decided to web-sling my way over here. How’s Sparky?”

“Er . . . OK, I guess.” I put the last bat away and went back to the Finches’ dugout. Dylan was right behind me.

“You can go back to the Pines’ dugout if you want,” he said. “I’ll help the Finches.”

“Sure,” I said.

Then I realized that Dylan had frozen in place, his mouth wide open.

“He’s gone!” Dylan pointed at the empty web. “Sparky is gone!”

“He might come back.”

“Nobody smooshed him, did they?”

“Nobody smooshed him,” I said. “That spider just dropped and ran away. I saw him do it.”

“I hope he’s all right,” said Dylan. He crouched and peered through the fence at the infield.
