Personal Narrative: My First Playing Baseball

Before I was first playing baseball I wasn’t very good and didn’t understand it, I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I played t-ball and parent pitch and it was very fun, I could never really hit, but I could field pretty well, and I was always better than my peers. My parents loved baseball and were always very encouraging of how I played baseball, and how bad I was. Once I turned an unassisted triple play, Which means that I got 3 outs all by myself, In the same play to end the inning. Until kid pitch i didn't know the game of baseball. I would constantly get hit by pitches cause I was a left handed batter, and pitchers at that age couldn’t throw me any strikes and would constantly walk me. Any time I got a pitch to hit I would hit pretty far and get a double or a triple.
While I was 11 in the summer I went to see this hitting instructor, For my swing, He also made my swing more consistent. Not only did he help my swing, but he helped me realize how much fun baseball can be. I was playing school baseball when I
was 12 and I was in 7th grade, so I was on the bench. However I was a back-up 2nd baseman for the A-team. I thought I should have been playing over the starting 2nd baseman, but my coach had other thoughts. I was pretty consistent when I batted and I was also good at fielding ground balls, I don’t know what more coach wanted from me. Next it’s my 8th grade year for baseball and I am hyped at tryouts. I’m no longer playing 2nd base but instead i’m playing outfield. That came as a surprise to me cause I was almost positive I was playing 2nd base, However I wasn’t complaining cause I just wanted to play Baseball.
Our first game is against Peoria Christian and they haven’t been good at any sport in a little while.
So we kinda knew we were gonna win, but we didn’t want to jinx it and lose. We had a fantastic game and won 14-1. I had a total 0 plays out in the outfield and that sure was a whole lot of fun. I went 3-4 when I was batting which is ok but I could have gone 4-4, Since I wasn’t seeing the ball out of the pitcher's hand I was late on the ball and was all in all, a bad game. Our season was doing really well and ended really poorly, It ended by us losing 9-1, We were not happy nor were we upset that we lost. but we understood we needed to get better. Whereas High school baseball is gonna be way better cause we don’t play the same teams we play easier teams. Which is nice because we will win much easier and not have any competition. The high school team consistently wins regionals which is cool and they have been to state a couple
times.
