บท 982: V3 ch216 @ Golden West (4)

Bryce started the top of the fifth with a standup double to left field, cheering up our dugout right away. Noah got under the ball too much and popped up right to the shortstop. 

I could already hear the grief that Dave would give him when he got back to the dugout. I gave Noah a sympathetic look as we switched places. 

I chose to bat from the left side for no particular reason. But it was better for me to give both sides more equal chances and opportunities. I didn't want to get rusty on one side over the other. I kept things simple in my at bat, hitting a flare single to left field. Bryce played it safe and only advanced to third. We had Garret after us after all.
