It was almost like a repeat of last year.
The San Marino coach didn't take his ejection lightly. He made sure he got his two cents worth as he yelled at the umpires. The catcher was the first to go back to their dugout under the guidance of an assistant coach. I could see him taking his gear off. Someone else started to put it on. Presumably the new catcher.
"Jake." I heard Coach call for me.
I turned to face him and Jason.
Coach gave a small nod. "This opportunity is even better than we expected. A backup catcher. If and when you do get walked, make sure to get off that bag. You're faster than you think. Go out as far as the first baseman." He instructed.
I nodded. I glanced back at Noah on first with Coach Luis. "That looked like it hurt."
Coach's lips twitched. "I bet it did. I don't think the catcher did it intentionally though. He was probably just frustrated and made a bad throw. It happens."
