Finally called my first
real FP games tonight - all pitching rules in effect, can steal any base, d3k in effect, etc.
Didn't do too badly. Still need to develop some consistency on the outside corner, but did all right. Already recognize a few things I need to work on, but those will come with time. My partner paid me a generous compliment, "you came here and brought your A game." That really helps. I don't think I flinched even once, and I've got the bump on my hand to prove it.
And for the record, the Shock Doctor carbon flex cup works well. Very. Well.
