The Hitting Zone

After a near death experience thanks to his own mother, Jake Hollander has an adverse reaction to people, baseball, and family. His feeling of abandonment is slowly lost thanks to his foster family, The Atkins. They take him in and change his mind about everything. He becomes more open, better at baseball, and craves for family. Slowly all wishes are granted.

CIF Quarterfinal: Northwood HS (2)

Drew was very strict in what I could and couldn't do, but I wasn't in a position to argue. He lectured me the whole time as he covered my arm with gauze, some padding, and then wrapped it. "This will help only a little. Try not to foul off a million pitches like normal. Pick one to swing at. Ideally, if you could walk at every at-bat, then we could prevent you from swinging and aggravating the cut."

"I only earn walks by fouling off the balls in the zone." I pointed out.

His face twitched. "Okay. No. I'll talk to Coach for you. I don't know if he'll allow you to play with this restriction, but for now, go jog some."

Drew spoke with Coach as I jogged around, but Coach seemed okay with what he had to say since I was still in the lineup when he announced it before game time.
