\carmen martinez, number 42.\ i took a deep breath as my name rumbled through the loudspeaker. i was so nervous! with each step from the on-deck circle to the batters box, i thought my knees would give out and i would collapse. my stomach was in knots.
one chance. i had one chance to help my team win this game so we could go to the state semifinals. i could hear the crowd cheering for me. \you got this!\ they screamed. \you can do this!\ i hoped i could.
which is the best example of a vivid sensory detail?

A vivid sensory detail uses physical, sensory experiences to show a feeling rather than just stating it. The option describes a physical, bodily sensation tied to nervousness, which is a concrete sensory detail, unlike the other options that are direct statements of emotion or thought.
