Top of the second. Garret breezed through the core of their lineup. The cleanup hitter smacked a sharp grounder to Noah, who caught it and made a perfect throw to Sean at first. Then Garret used his cutter to strike the next two players out. He roared along with the crowd, in high spirits.
Dave slapped Garret excitedly when he came back into the dugout. "Yes, man! That's the way! Two outs an inning and you won't have to share the record with that stinky guy anymore!"
Garret grinned, yet he didn't deny it.
Our half of the second inning went nearly just as fast. Jesse and Korrey both made contact, hitting fly balls to the outfield and then Mitchell struck out swinging.
