Capítulo 1083: V3 ch317 @ Redwood HS (3)

Our offense couldn't do much after that though. Mitchell did advance the runner with a sharp groundout to short. But when Joey hit his own grounder to short, the shortstop threw to the catcher at home before Jesse could reach. Jesse tried to retreat back, soon finding himself in a pickle. He was run down for the second out. Dalton hit into a groundout at first, leaving me stranded on deck. Pretty much can guarantee that I'll see an intentional walk next inning. 

Bottom of the second, Joey looked better on the mound. He jammed the first guy, getting him to pop out to Jason in foul territory. The second guy also pulled the ball towards Jason for a groundout. Next up hit a routine fly out to Korrey in left field. We jogged back to the dugout for the third. 

I slowly got ready for my at bat again near Noah. He noticed my reluctance and laughed. "Why do you look like you're being punished? Don't you love batting the most?"
