Game 08: L 8-15
2-3: Single, Triple, took the out by not running after hit went up the middle catching the ankles of the pitcher
3rd Base
Overall, I would call it a quality outing at 3rd
Good:
- Hit a good triple that went over the head of RCF (outfielder was called in after previous hit was a shallow line drive); I have been trying to remember to turn my hips when swinging and this was the only time tonight I got it right.
- Secured a pop fly with the glove over my head (I tend to allow the ball the fall to my waist before attempting to secure it)
- Fielded all but one grounder hit at me cleanly (combining both games); the one that got away had a little bit of speed on it and I was unable to get my glove down in time.
Bad:
- Lost my timing and hit one up the middle that caught the ankles of the pitcher
- One-hopped a ball over to first (I did rebound later by throwing one cleanly)
- Failed to connect on a throw to 2nd
- Came close to colliding with SS on a ball in between us (was able to back off at the last second).
- Would have like to maintained 3rd better.
