I pitched him low, and got a 2-2 count. He ripped one foul, and it probably would have been a homer if it hadn't been. The catcher signaled for a a a low and away knuckleball, but I shook it off. I had an idea. I pitched a high fastball, and caught him completely by surprise. He was so used to hitting poor pitches, that when he saw a meatball, he missed by a mile. I struck him out, and got out of the inning alive.

Our team rallied, and we ended up winning 5-4. I got the win!

Thank you! I honestly would've chose other things, but I just played it safe, and went with the "Varitek Rule" with the last one.

So, after the game, I went back home. It was 5:30 p.m. What should I do?

DECISION TIME!!
Eat supper, watch TV, go to bed
Call Sheldon and see what he wants to do
Call Josh and see what he wants to do

I called up Sheldon, to see what he wanted to do. He picked up, and we decided we'd go the park.

I met him at the park, and he asked me what I wanted to do.

DECISION TIME!!
Play catch
Walk down to the lake
Walk into the woods

One of these options is good, one is bad, and one is pretty much normal. Good luck. :wink:

Oh, playing it safe, eh?

Sheldon and I played catch until it was dark. We had a contest to see who could throw fastest. I won, no surprise. But, I was really packing heat, and he showed me how his little league coach had told him to hold his fastball. It helped. After that, we went home.

The next day, I headed off to practice. Our next game would be against the Speedy Thieves, a team that liked to steal bases, and bunt a lot. What should I practice?

DECISION TIME!!
Speed
Breaking Ball(please specify learn new, or level up certain pitch)
Stamina
Control

I decided to work on my stamina, so I could pitch deep into games.

Afterwards, coach came up to Josh and I.
"Guys, I've got some news. We've been impressed with the way Techer has been pitching lately. So, we are gonna let him make a start in our next game, and see how it goes."
"I saw this coming." said Josh. "Techer has pitched better than me in both games. I can still be the best reliever in AA though!"
"Sweet!" was my only reply.

After this, I went home. I pondered what to do.

DECISION TIME!!
Go to the woods
Go to the park
Go to the lake
Go to the restaurant

Choose wisely!

Oh, interesting...

I decided to walk down to the lake. I began to take a walk along the beach. There was trash all over. As I walked, I saw some more trash, but it caught my eye. There were 3 old milk bottles standing upright in the sand. I saw there was a note in all 3. What should I do?

DECISION TIME!!
Read the note in bottle #1
Read the note in bottle #2
Read the note in bottle #3
Just keep walking

Choose wisely!

Oh... Not the best choice, but not bad either.

I decided to look in the middle bottle. I saw there was a drawing of a baseball and stuff on the page. I read it, and it was all about how to control your pitches better. It seemed fairly helpful, so I put it in my pocket, and began to trek back home.

I also put up a new poll.
