baseball trip

overall, it went pretty well. started out very slowly, kept forgetting to make cutoffs and small plays, was very annoying when they yelled at me. hit decently the first day. bad things: watching a certain two people take a certain position from me the first couple of days. kept trying to explain to m. that i shouldn't have gone away the first week, but she vehemetly said that it had nothing to do with that (in all reality, it had everything to do with that).

anyway, we went to the mall first night, got a crossword book (shared it with everyone on the flight back). second day was even worse except for the very end. basically was on the bench for the whole of practice watching others hit and stuff. very end was good because i nailed a first pitch fastball back up the middle from atch. didn't get picked off at first, although i made a questionable choice at second. was feeling pretty bad though. second night went to boomerz, rode go carts for hours, tons of accidents, i won a couple), of course there was nothing to eat at this place but that was besides the point.

last two days were very good. i pitched a bit and did well. my hitting was distinctly average although i did have some bright spots. t. complemented me which was very good (coming from him, it's amazing). finally last day, i was part of the varsity infield-outfield. i think i'll either make the squad and sit on the bench the entire time (backup right field) or i'll be on jv and maybe get called up to play in varsity games where it's a no contest. this week suprisingly helped me though, however, i'm still not sure how c. likes me as a player.
