It's Thursday and I meet Luke at lockers as usual. I ask him if he wants to go to my tournament this weekend. So he replied,"Sure", he asked what time and where, so I simply answered,"9:00am at Douglass, GA." I suggest that I drive there and he drives back and he agrees.
It's finally Saturday and I'm in my uniform which is a black jersey with neon green stripes and written in brown green is "MISSFITS", my pants are black with a green stripe down the pants, and my socks are plane black. So we're having a blackout tournament. I'm on the way to pick up Luke when my phone rings. I answer it and it's Julie. She says,"Hey, I won't be at the tournament, I'm going to the beach with Randy Houser."then I roll my eyes. She usually makes up things like that.
So I'm at Luke's house when see his little brother, David, walk out on crutches with a neon green cast on his foot. When I meet them at the front door I ask David what happened and he answered," I fell out of a tree." Davi's a sweet kid, but he's always hurting himself. Luke and I get in the truck and we're half way to Douglass when a long, slow train starts to pass. It takes about 10minutes for it to pass then we're off again.
When we get to Douglass I take my bat bag and a bucket of 12in. softballs while Luke carries the catching equipment and our hitting/pitching net in a bag. when we reach the field I go stretch with the other girls. Then I throw with Lacy. We like to do a lot of long toss and she loves my windup. Then I warmup pitching with Jayla. Then in the game I pitched and struck out every girl. Luke was asked to coach 1st while my dad coached 3rd. Then it was my turn to bat and bases were loaded. The pitcher pitched the ball and I missed twice. The next 3 pitches were balls then the next one was a perfect strike down the middle and I smacked it to the fence. The centerfielder and right fielder were fighting over the ball and I'm rounding third when I see a ball coming home and I slide under the tag and got a grand slam everyone came out of the dugout and picked me up and hit me on the head while I had my helmet on.
