Scrimmage 1

We had our second scrimmage today, my first, and it wasn't great. I was hoping to get two in this weekend, but with the sore, sprained wrist, I think it's a bad idea.

I fell yesterday and the wrist was sore. Despite ice last night, when I went to bend it, I had pain, and when I made a throwing motion, I knew I wasn't playing right handed. That wasn't good because I played 1st and 2nd today and struggled to catch with my right hand. Every time the ball hit my glove I had a nice bolt of pain shoot in my wrist.

Swinging a bat wasn't batter, and I struggled to get around quickly. A strikeout and a foul out and I was really done. Glad I didn't bat again.

We played OK, a mix of fielding errors and throwing errors. I missed a sharp grounder, and couldn't pick up a bad throw at first. I did recover nicely to make a play at second, but I felt really, really rusty. Sorry I'm not playing tomorrow, but I think it's a bad idea to go stressing the wrist more.
