As players, we had to leave the four of them behind and go find our field to start warmups. We weren't the first ones there, but we also weren't the last. The members of our team showed up in pairs or small groups, quickly filling up our designated dugout. For the first game, we were assigned to be the 'visitors' and got the dugout on the first base side.
I shivered as a big gust of wind came through.
"The ball is going to be flying today." Coach stated, walking into the dugout. He looked around as everyone finished getting ready and tying their cleats. "I hope you all did well on your finals, but also took the time to prepare for this weekend."
"I'm ready, Coach!" Dave stood straight. "I can start tonight!"
Coach chuckled. "You can have tomorrow morning's game."
Dave grinned, happy with what he heard.
"Hey! That's not fair." Kyle bumped Dave over, trying to get Coach's attention. "Why don't I start game two? I'm the better pitcher!"
