She said later that day, her nephew had a baseball game, and she was hesitant to go because of how she was feeling; nonetheless, she and her son went. While there, <strong>Sherika<\/strong> said she still had a bad feeling about something, so she sat in the middle of the bleachers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sherika<\/strong> said her 13-year-old son, <strong>Michael<\/strong>, whose last name we will not mention, sat beside her.
