I practiced hard and took the mound, but unfortunately, it was a ground ball.

He was practicing hard before the ceremonial first pitch, but then he started groaning that his arm hurt.

I went up to the mound and threw the ball cleanly.

Unfortunately, it turned into a ground ball, so it looks like he was flustered too.

It's super fun to ascend to the throne of positivity just by throwing a ground ball and rationalizing it this way and that.

It's cool to see you having so much fun watching the baseball game live and enjoying it perfectly until the very end.
