Top of the fifth. Kyle's first opponent was the cleanup hitter. He made it look easy, getting him to strikeout looking. The next two were routine grounders, both fielded by Noah at short. That made Noah a happy player. He was the type to want every ball to go to him so he can make every play. And Kyle was making it happen today.
I was the complete opposite, asking for no balls to go my way. Not even easy ones. If a ball doesn't come my way, it means less chance for an error.
Bottom of the fifth, Garret started us off right: a single to right field. Sean spoiled it by hitting a grounder right to the shortstop. Shortstop flipped it to the second baseman at the base, who then threw it to first base to complete the double play. Jason barely got a piece of the ball, popping up to the first baseman to end the inning.
