Coach eventually finished answering all the questions that were asked. Most of which was by the few players that weren't able to come to the summer camp. Practice started with a jog around the JV field a couple of times, then as we stretched, Coach put us in groups by position.

The infielder group was divided into three, and I was still with Noah. And we got Mr. Miller. Good. To make things even better, our group got to start with batting drills. I could feel the stares whenever it was my turn in the batting cage, but I was getting good at blocking it out.

The week flew by. Classes. Practice. Classes. Practice. On Friday, Coach divided us into the teams and had announced it as we stretched. Afterwards, he came over to where I was and squatted down since I was sitting in the grass.

I felt a little nervous staring into his sunglasses. "Yes, Coach?"
