Mitchell got cornered on the fastballs and chose to watch the curveball go by.
"Strike! Out!" The umpire declared.
Mitchell looked at the catcher's glove and then up to the sky. On his way back, he shared a sentence with Bryce. Bryce nodded and then went to the batter's box. Noah moved to the on deck circle. I hurried up with my gear.
"Would you still walk Jake if Bryce and Noah got on?" Dave asked Kyle. "Knowing Garret is next?"
"Depends if I've gotten Garret out multiple times so far in the game." Kyle answered. "But knowing him and myself, and adding in Jake? Yes. I'll absolutely walk him and load the bases. Me versus Garret? I would destroy him."
"Bro, you would probably only have a 50/50 chance." Dave argued. "A strikeout would be improbable so you would have to rely on your fielders."
Kyle rubbed his chin then lit up. "Oh! I know! After walking Jake. I would just do some check throws in hopes that he would make a mistake."
