I realize most people won't care, but last night was our town Little League All Star game.
To explain the process, each team chooses their own all stars, no matter what position they play. Then they combine the players from all the National League team and all the American League teams. Basically, you get who you get, so one team could have 6 shortstops and the other 6 first basemen. Sadly, one team ended up without anyone who was a catcher. That might be a tip off as to where this thread is going.
The American League team rolled out their ace pitcher, who throws hard, is a little wild, and likes to throw the ball low or in the dirst. At one point, he struck out six batters in a row . . . IN THE SAME INNING. The catcher had great difficulty holding on to third strikes, the ball would get away, and the batter would make it to first safely. In the strangest inning I have ever seen, the pitcher had 9 strikeouts in the inning but allowed 7 runs on no hits. He gave up a walk and only one kid hit a fair ball, which unfortunately got booted.
