Softball continues

So my situation with the softball team has increased in its awkwardness. Not only are all the players superstars, I apparently am not even worthy to be catcher and am demoted to sitting on the bench while the sub plays for me. Every Thursday I pray for rain and every Thursday there is not a cloud in the sky. This past Thursday, however, it actually rained! I was so excited, but then learned that what I really needed to be praying for is thunder and lots of lightening. During this last game I'm sitting out while the sub plays and beaming as I realize there are only 15 minutes left and with the game so close there's no way they're going to take the sub out to let me in....to play catcher mind you. After the game ended and I said goodbye to the team, one of the coaches makes a comment about next week. Next week? What?! Apparently our team is in the semi-finals. Great. So I am fortunate enough to have other week of utterly embarrassing and "humble" experiences either on the field or on the bench.
