At the beginning of Tuesday's practice, Coach held a short meeting. Sean and I were told to rejoin the normal team practices and the twins had their focus on their upcoming respective starts.
"I don't want you in the bullpen this week." Coach told Bryce. "Stay with the outfielders. I'm thinking about using you Thursday."
"But Garret isn't going to pitch on Thursday either." Noah pointed out.
"What bullpen do we need with me on the mound?" Dave pulled Noah into a headlock. "I can deal with those guys from Golden West, no problem."
Coach cleared his throat and Dave stopped messing with Noah. "I believe in Dave and the rest of the bullpen. Our pitching is top tier in the high school level. Last year we lost to Golden West 2-3 and then beat them 1-0. Low scoring games so I want to focus on offense. Bryce has been good at the plate this past week so I want him in the lineup."
