Scorekeeping

Every player in the softball league has to do the announcing and scorekeeping for one or two games during the season.  I had to only do one game but I was very nervous about it because the players rely on the scorekeeper to tell them the right score and the right inning and the right number of outs.  I also have to announce the batter and the player on deck and in-the-hole which is hard to keep track of and I have real trouble pronouncing names.  Barb thought I was being silly being so nervous.  I told her about all the different buttons on the scorekeeping machine.  She said I should bring some sticky notes to write on and stick them beside the buttons to remind me.  I did and I survived the ordeal.
