V3 ch316 @ Redwood HS (2)

Despite the gathering of men in the stands, it was rather quiet as the game got started. Dalton went up first, leading us off with a single to left. The guys in the dugout clapped for him, responsible for 90% of the cheers. We really didn't have any fans on our side like parents or classmates. It's a Saturday away game...that didn't mean much. 

I stepped up to the plate next and the catcher stood up. My eyelid twitch, feeling a little annoyed. It's not like first base is even open. 

"Intentional walk." The catcher told the umpire. 

"Take your base." The umpire said to me, gesturing to first. 

I sighed, tossed my bat towards the dugout, and jogged to first. 

Coach Riley greeted me with a head nod. I played with the strap on my batting glove, feeling down. Sean came up next. On a 2-1 count, he hit a fly ball to the right corner.
