Read the excerpt from "The Legacy of Billy Mason."
"Billy Mason Farrell," his father had said, "I want you to listen to me. We need you to stay at Grandma M's tonight. I know how you feel about her, and I’m not saying you’re wrong, but there isn’t enough room for all of us here at the main farm house."
"I told you I should have stayed home!" Billy protested plaintively. "I'm missing the first game of the playoffs, and my team really needs me!"
"I understand—" began his father.
"No, you don’t understand," said Billy, "because you never cared about anything like I care about baseball, not in your whole life."
"I'm not going to argue with you," said his father. "My family lives on this farm, we come out here for one week every summer, and Grandma M needs to be included in this visit. I want you to take one for the team."
How does Billy's father feel about the visit to the farm?
He sees it as a chance to get away from baseball.
He thinks of it as an opportunity to be with family.
He hopes it will be over quickly.
He thinks it is less important than Billy’s baseball game.
