Kapitel 461: CIF Quarterfinal: Northwood HS (2)

Drew was very strict in what I could and couldn't do, but I wasn't in a position to argue. He lectured me the whole time as he covered my arm with gauze, some padding, and then wrapped it. "This will help only a little. Try not to foul off a million pitches like normal. Pick one to swing at. Ideally, if you could walk at every at-bat, then we could prevent you from swinging and aggravating the cut."

"I only earn walks by fouling off the balls in the zone." I pointed out. 

His face twitched. "Okay. No. I'll talk to Coach for you. I don't know if he'll allow you to play with this restriction, but for now, go jog some." 

Drew spoke with Coach as I jogged around, but Coach seemed okay with what he had to say since I was still in the lineup when he announced it before game time.
