Bottom of the second. Jesse led off, making contact early, a routine grounder to short for the first out. 

"He's been struggling at the plate." Noah mumbled under his breath so only I could hear. "He needs to hit the cages."

I shrugged. "Coach knows what to do."

"Yea, bringing in Bryce to play in the outfield." Noah gave me a pointed look. That really was one of the answers Coach came up with for the struggling parts of the lineup. Bryce didn't seem to mind though; he's a good fielder and his bat has been consistent lately. 

Sean was up next. He fouled off a couple pitches before catching up with one, hitting it to center field for a short single. With him on first, Mitchell came up next. He was a catcher that focused a lot on calling games, but he could still hit. Just not lately against the better teams we played. Mr. Miller gave out the signs; Sean to take a big lead, look for chances to steal. Mitchell to only swing on really good looking pitches.
