Brian really did take care of business on the mound. Him and Scott worked well. I think. Or maybe Brian was just that much better than JV players? It probably helped that they had spoken and made a game plan. They got the cleanup hitter to swing late, hitting a grounder down the line to Sean. He scooped it up and beat out the batter to the bag for the first out. Batter five became strikeout victim number three. Batter six made the best contact, hitting a line drive...right to Bryce though. We jogged it back to the dugout.
I switched into my batting gear and headed for the exit. Mr. Miller stopped me by resting his hand on top of my helmet. "Start us off strong, kid. Don't fool around."
