Get It Over The Plate

The 2nd game of the year brought back memories of last year. We dropped to 0-2 after a 14-3 loss over North Babylon. The score is really deceiving though, as our pitcher's just couldn't throw strikes, and walked a ton of people. They didn't start teeing off until the final inning. I had one AB and played only 2 Innings cause the catcher didn't feel like catching anymore so someone had to come out so we could bring in a new catcher, and it just happened to be me. I K'ed in my only AB, but had a good swing with the new modification to my stance. I think with work on it and just the course of time, it'll all pan out. Gotta remember, didn't get a hit last year or even foul a ball off until the 6th or 7th game last year, so I'm already ahead of last year's pace.

Lindy @ North Babylon, L 3-14

0-1, K

Season:
0-3, 3 K, BB

It's to be noted before the game that I decided on my good luck charm. I took my pen's made for writing on skin and other surfaces, and I wrote Lexa on the inside of my glove, and my batting glove. I decided there is no better good luck charm than the thought and name of the person I love the most in this world. I now look into my glove everytime before I take the field and kiss my batting glove where her name is before I go to bat. Whither it affects my season or not, the fact of her presence being in baseball too just makes it all the more fun to play.
