Our team had an away game today (a makeup day from all the snow we had this winter in SE PA). We had gotten to the game and the first inning went off without a hitch. The second inning comes around and their No.6 hitter got on base with one out in the inning. Her coaches run the signs and I'm shocked to see her attempt to steal. I get up on the 0-1 pitch and throw to second. She comes in standing and is called out about three steps before she reached second. She jogs back to the dugout. As she is jogging back to the dugout, I hear her coach screaming and everyone sitting on the hill behind the first, third and home wall go silent. Her coach is actually screaming at her for not sliding. When he asks her a question about why she didn't slide, she non chalantly says "I just had my belly button pierced and didn't want to get dirt in it". I mean I'm not immune to getting pierced as I have my 2 holes in each of my lobes and 2 holes in each of my ear cartilage. But after I get out of high school, I would like to get my belly button and nose pierced. She comes back up to bat in the bottom of the fourth and I have my head down while I'm sweeping out dirt with my cleats in the catcher's box. I look at her and said "Do you really have your belly button pierced?" She smiled and said "Yeah." I just said cool and left it at that.
I just had to share that. I had a chuckle out of it.
