Reply to "Son of a Pitch"

MA2034:

Welcome to HSBBWEB. It seems to me that he wasn't warmed up and the coach wanted to see him pitch in a "game situation." The closer on my son's college team was also starting first baseman. In the 8th or 9th inning if the game was tight, my son (MI) and closer (1b) altered their in between warmups. 1b was throwing overhead to my son and harder than his typical grounders to infielders.  These served as assimilated warmups for when he would take the mound. Your son at 3B could do something similarly and be more ready should he get the "unexpected call."

Lastly, does your son see himself more as a hitter who pitches, or a pitcher who plays 3b?
