Name: Marco Kennedy
B/T: S/R
Position: C
Appearance: Five foot, seven inches tall. Darkish skin, thin brown stubble, short brown curly hair.

And the Beavers, I guess. Why are they all Minneapolis or St. Paul though?

Lets assume that the player lives in one of these two cities, so they're close in proximity.

"Oh boy! I sure am excited for baseball tryouts! Aren't you too Michael?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty pumped."
"Cool"

Alright kids, we're here to make a solid team, okay? Our rival Saints won the championship last year, and we're going to take it back! If you're cut, don't feel ashamed, you just weren't good enough, alright, let's start!

The coach put me up against a senior, Jake was his name, I took the first pitch which was a loopy curveball for strike one.

A. Guess curveball
B. Guess change up
C. Wait for a fastball.
D. Just try to make contact.

C

And let me guess, I'm gonna end up getting cut, aren't I?

I decided to wait for a fastball, he threw a change up in the strike zone to go up 0-2, but he left a fastball right in the middle of the plate which I lined to centre for a single.

+15 technique
+10 power

After a couple of fielding practices the coach brought us all together.

I can see that plenty of you have some talent, but some of you just don't have what it takes to make the team, no one was cut today, but we can't say the same thing for next week, good luck everyone.

A. Stay and practice with Michael
B. Study
C. Go home

A

Also, he's originally from Cuba, so have him speak broken English. Not bad, but just enough to know he isn't a native speaker

I'll go watch him if he plays in the championship, Minneapolis/St.Paul is only about 4-5 hours from here.

I decided to stay at the field and practice with Michael, practice never hurts, amirite?

+5 quickness
+5 technique

I went home afterwards and was thinking what I should do.

A. Go on the Internet
B. watch the twins game
C. Call Michael
D. Study

I decided to watch the Twins game since we just got this awesome HD box. I started watching, they performed so badly that I felt that I got worse as a player, they lost 31-3 to the Texas rangers.

I put in C and B! Both were right! I aced the test.

After school there was a baseball tryout, there was only one more after this before the team was decided. The coach decided to talk to me personally.

"Hey Marco, how's it going?"
"Not very bad sir, I fine."
"Great, I seriously think you've got a shot to make the team."
"Very good, thank you"

The coach decided to have us play a practice game, I was the catcher for the Blue team. Our pitcher glided through two innings before he gave up a homerun, and then a single after that, it was the fastest player on the team, he took a few lead offs and tried to steal second before the batter fouled off a pitch.

A. Pitchout
B. ask for a slider
C. Ask for a fastball

Nope. I actually don't go on reddit...

And C

I called for a fastball and the runner ran, I missed him by bare inches as he was safe on the tag.

"Nice job Marco..."

+3 coach
+5 power

After the practice the coach cut two freshmen that were supposedly pitchers but only clocked in at 56.

After the practice I went home and had nothing to do.

A. Call Michael
B. Go online
C. Study
D. Update my pirates log

C, only because D would break everything logical
