After Bryce's single, Garret smacked a long fly ball to the corner of left field. It was near the same spot as mine, but his hit went much high and a lot less further. The left fielder had plenty of time to get under it and make the catch. Bryce tagged up and the left fielder had a slight delay before throwing the ball back in. 

"He didn't expect Bryce to tag up?" Noah mumbled, sounding confused. "How did these guys make it this far? Coach would murder us if we played dumb like that."

I shrugged. I wouldn't know. I thought it was amazing that they moved up a division just a year ago and already won league. I don't think we could do that. We've played higher divisions before and every time, it was a challenge. 

Brian poked a single into right, pushing Bryce to third. During Sean's at bat, Brian was able to steal second and the catcher didn't attempt to throw him out. Not with a runner on third. Put us in a real good position though.
