Dear Captain's log,
Today was opening day against our rival Giants and my major league debut!!! I came on in relief and struck out the side on nine pitches in the eigth. We won 1-0. After the game, Joe was convinced. I'm a starter! April sixth against the Padres! The whole family is coming! It's going to be great!

Here I am at Petco Park with my family. They were so happy to see me. I was even happier to see them. I was very nervous when I came out of my bullpen session. Not even my HAPPYBALL was working. I know bullpen sessions mean nothing, but I was scared.

Once I got into a groove, there was no getting me out. I struck out the first 8 batters. The first person to make contact was Randy Wolf, the pitcher. He popped out to third.

I was striking them out like nothing. Not a problem. In the seventh inning we finally scored a run. I cruised into the ninth. I struck Jim Edmonds out. I gave up a hit. Joe Torre had seen enough. I wanted to bring my dad out to the mound so he could give him 1,000 reasons as to why not to take me out. He took me out. Saito came in.

Reason number one happened. He blew the lead and we lost 2-1.

After the game, my family could tell I wasn't in the mood, but Oakley couldn't. He just HAD to take me to some resteraunt.

"Hap! What's the haps, man? Get it? Get it?" he persisted

"Gee, I haven't heard that one before, Oakley." I replied.

We went to some resteraunt and he introduced me to a pretty waitress named Emily.

"Oh, help me! Please! That man's leavin' without payin'!" She said in a southern accent. (Or atleast that's how I heard it).

"I'll save you, my lady!" Oakley said.

We ran after him. Oakley and I were gassed, but I was the one who played. I couldn't run anymore so I threw my HAPPYBALL at him. Here's the thing about the HAPPYBALL, it doesn't hurt when you're hit by it- it tickles. One time I taught my dad to throw it. He threw it at me so I fell to the ground laughing and begging for mercy, but the next day- exactly 24 hours late- I felt pain all over and I started crying and fell to the floor. The next minute, I was fine. Everyone thought I was crazy until I threw it at my dad and the same thing happened. After that, everyone though me AND my dad were crazy. I'm bound to hit a bunch of people in my career so it'll get out eventually.

Anyway, we caught him. Emily gave me her number. Oakley sure knows how to cheer a guy up.

I mix up the pitches. A high lvl 1 knuckler kills. My changeup's good. My fastball's great, and my DCB acts like a Happyball, but breaks less and is slower.

Oh, hey, I got nineteen K's again. This time the team won. The catch: They waited until the 10th MOTHER****ING INNING TO DO IT! 1-0 I get a ND with 9 sutout innings, 1 hit, 19 K's, and no walks!

I know. BTW, you can be the agent, but you've gotta be whoever I pick to represent me in the game.

Huh. I have a pitcher with a Lv. 6 KN, Lv. 1 Foshball, Level 3 Knuckle Curve and Cutter, and a Lev 1 Screwball and 2SFB, and 93 top speed, and I never manage to get strikeouts when I play.

What abilities? I got good Fastball life, spin, and Dr. K. And mowing down the Padres ain't exactly the biggest accomplishment. :wink:

Also, can anybody tell me how to post pictures. I took them with my I touch. How do I get them on to my computer? After that, how do I post them?

You get your Ipod Charger and put it into your computer. Connect your Ipod to your Ipod Charger. A screen will come up where you can choose a variety of options. Pick "Import Pictures and Videos." Then go to Full Editor and find the place that says Upload picture, Find your picture, and BOOM!
