Bab 1054: V3 ch288 Regional Tryouts (6)

Jeremy looked embarrassed. "I actually have nothing to do with his playing abilities. We just recently reconnected last year. Jake's been adopted by a great family that has contributed way more to his skill in baseball than I have."

"That's where Zeke Atkins comes in then?" The coach mused. "A very interconnected baseball family."

"Yea, pretty much." Dave said in a relaxed manner. "We're all into baseball and not going to lie, we're all very good."

I covered my face with a hand, embarrassed. He's totally bragging. 

"C'mon Jakey." Dave reached out to mess up my hair again. "Don't hide our accomplishments. Be proud."

I peeked through the fingers of my hand. "Did you see me in the outfield?"

Dave burst out laughing. "Not only did I see it, I recorded it too. I was so ready to see you try out there. In a couple of years, it's going to be on your best bloopers reel. No one would believe the best hitter around could be so bad on the field."
