Pitcher's Promise

 .

I’ll be your Ace.

I’ll be around.

If you give me the ball I will throw it. I will pitch it past every batter that can get to the plate.

I will strike them out. I will shut them down. I will dominate.

I will protect you. I will carry you on my back.

I need you to protect me too.

I will throw the fastball, I will throw it with power. Two seam.

Four seam.

I will throw my slider. I will blindside the best of them. I will leave them dusted in wonder at the glory of my arm.

I will strike out the side.

I will love you if you let me.

I’ll be your Ace.

I’ll be around.
