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.

*Third Person*

Mikey slowly made his way to the mound as Jake Atkins trotted around the bases. "Okay, let's admit that was a bad idea, and move on."

Cody unclenched his jaw. "Right. I know."

Mikey put his arm around his shoulders and leaned in as they walked to the back of the mound. "No, I don't think you do. You're probably feeling upset. Mostly because of the shit talking going on between you and Danny. Brush it off. It's not wrong to lose to the best hitter in the state. Heck, it's expected.

Cody elbowed hit away. "I'm just annoyed that I was too predictable. I should have played it safe and walked him. Don't worry, I'll put it behind me. For now."

"If you're sure." Mikey gave him one last look before walking back to home plate. He gave his coach a subtle sign to keep an eye on Cody. They're now losing and still don't have an out this inning. Might be time to have the bullpen warming up.
