  "I have an idea," replied Bobby. " How about if one of us ever dies, he has to come back and tell the other if there is baseball in heaven."
  "Ok, it's a deal."Ricky agreed.
  A few days later, Ricky was cycling down the road when he was hit by a car. he died on the way to hospital. Bobby went to the funeral and cried for days.
