Coach had announced the lineup before warmups, but everyone stayed focused, not bothered by who got the start and who didn't. Coach was fair. He did what he could to help us win. 

I was only worried about Noah batting at the end of the lineup. 

Turns out, he was fine with it. He was grinning as I pulled my helmet on. "You get out there and show them who's boss." He pulled out the batting gloves stuffed in my side pocket. "Don't forget these."

I sighed and tugged them on. 

"Keep those hands protected." Noah looked out to the field where University Prep was being introduced as they took their positions. "I think you should attack early, catch them off guard."
