based on the readers prediction in the paragraph, what is the best prediction here?
○ devin will sleep through his alarm.
○ devins team will win the tournament.
○ devins garage will be flooded by the rain.
○ devin will be disappointed by the weather.

Explanation:

Devin was excited for his baseball tournament. He prepared gear, his mom packed drinks. But storm clouds gathered and it rained. A baseball tournament is likely to be affected by rain. Sleeping through alarm isn't indicated (he's excited, prepared). Team winning isn't hinted (rain is problem). Garage flooding isn't mentioned. Rain would disappoint him as it affects the tournament.

Answer:

Devin will be disappointed by the weather.
