Emilio took the cap off his head, dropped the baseball bat, and rested his elbows on the fence. It wasn't that he couldn't find the ball. It was sitting right in the middle of the lawn, just beyond the fence. The fence was not very high either. Emilio could probably get a running start, grab the top of the fence, and flip right over it. But there was a dog, a large Rottweiler with a spiked collar. He sat under an awning a few feet away from the ball. He looked at Emilio and let out a menacing growl. Archie, Scotty, and Dutch ran up to Emilio and surveyed the situation. Archie was the first to speak, "So, are you going to do it, Emilio?" 1. What were the boys doing right before the text begins? 2. What problem is Emilio facing? 3. Why is this problem Emilio's instead of Archie's, Scotty's, or Dutch's?

1. The boys were playing baseball.  2. The problem that Emilio is facing is that a rottweiler is guarding the baseball that went over the fence.  3. It is Emilio's problem because he hit it over the fence probably.
