I was on the Mariners playing first base. I was hoping to do well on defense since I had never had a single at bat in any level of competition. I thought that as long as I did well in the field they would teach me how to bat. There was a high pop-up which I was trying to catch. However, I thought that to get the out I had to make the catch and keep my foot on the bag. So I was leaning way out with my foot on the bag, and just made the catch. Then I got scared that I would have to bat. I started explaining to the Manager how I had never batted so it might take me a few tries to get in the swing of things. While we were talking Edgar Martinez and John Olerud got traded to the Florida Marlins! I was very upset because I thought it was a betrayal of the team by those guys. I asked why they wanted to go to Florida and they said “because it is sunny and warm”. So right in the middle of the game they changed uniform and batted against us! Bastards! Luckly it was just a dream, and we won against Baltimore 1-0 today anyway.
