My Favorite Baseball Team
I have been a fan of a local baseball team in my town for quite a while. For the first time in so long, I managed to get a ticket for a baseball game this year. The game will be held about the middle of this month and I'm so excited about it. Unfortunately, my favorite team isn't doing well this year. It has won a championship three years in a row. I was so happy with it. However, I wasn't able to get any game tickets the whole year because the team was so popular with all generation even outside of my town. I had to watch a game on TV all the time last year. That's why getting a ticket is super happy for me. I felt like I draw lots. My favorite team has kept losing for the past few days, but I believe that it will work and make me happy when I go watch a game at the stadium. Go for it!

My Favorite Baseball Team
I have been a fan of a (if your town only has one baseball team, then use "the" instead of "a") local baseball team in my town for quite a while. For the first time in so long, I managed to get a ticket for a baseball game this year. The game will be held about the middle of this month and I'm so excited about it. Unfortunately, my favorite team isn't doing well this year. Previously, it has they have won a championship three years in a row. I was so happy with it them. However, I wasn't able to get any game tickets the whole year because the team was so popular with all generation (young and old alike/everyone) even outside of my town. I had to watch a games on TV all the time last year. That's why getting a ticket is super exciting happy for me. I felt like I drew lots. My favorite team has kept losing for the past few days, but I believe that it things will work out and make me I'll be happy when I go watch a the game at the stadium. Go for it!Notes:
緑は必要ではありません。 I just think it helps smooth the transition from present to past.
「team」は集合名詞です。集合代名詞について、通常、アメリカ人は「it」を使い、イギリス人は「they」を使います。でも、「team」は特例です。アメリカ人とイギリス人は「they」を使います。なぜ？それは、名前のアメリカのスポーツチームは複数です。For example: the New England Patriots, the Philadelphia Eagles, the Los Angeles Lakers. So even though Americans usually use "it" for collective pronouns (集合名詞), Americans use "they" with "team" because their teams almost always have plural names. I hope my explanation was clear, but if not feel free to ask for clarification.
”things will work out” is a useful phrase.
I am not sure what "all generation" is referring to. I guessed that maybe you meant "young and old alike" but I am not sure.
Good notebook entry! I hope your team does well!
