More baseball, and this time Luke did get to play. After Varsity finished yesterday's game (a very hard-earned win at 10-9 after thirteen innings--a Utah high school record), Varsity played their regularly scheduled second game against Stansbury (a hearty win at 13-6), and JV finally got to play.
Despite being a young 'un on the JV squad, Luke started at shortstop and played the whole game with no errors. Before his first at-bat, one of the Varsity seniors grabbed Luke by the helmet, looked him square in the eye, and told him to go out there and prove he should've been on JV all along. Luke did, batting .500. Even Coach Miller gave him a congratulatory fist bump.
