Chapitre 1070: V3 ch304 VS Servite HS (6)

*Third Person*

Mikey slowly made his way to the mound as Jake Atkins trotted around the bases. "Okay, let's admit that was a bad idea, and move on."

Cody unclenched his jaw. "Right. I know."

Mikey put his arm around his shoulders and leaned in as they walked to the back of the mound. "No, I don't think you do. You're probably feeling upset. Mostly because of the shit talking going on between you and Danny. Brush it off. It's not wrong to lose to the best hitter in the state. Heck, it's expected. 

Cody elbowed hit away. "I'm just annoyed that I was too predictable. I should have played it safe and walked him. Don't worry, I'll put it behind me. For now."

"If you're sure." Mikey gave him one last look before walking back to home plate. He gave his coach a subtle sign to keep an eye on Cody. They're now losing and still don't have an out this inning. Might be time to have the bullpen warming up.
