Tonight, for our 901st episode, we’ll read  a Snoozecast original titled “Centerfield”. In this story, the neighborhood boys play pickup ball games during the dog days of summer. Cole Brooks spends most of his time in centerfield daydreaming. A shift occurs when new slugger, Rolo Flores, wakes up the outfield with action at every play. In this story, Rolo hits a

dinger far beyond the boundaries of the field, launching a mysterious adventure.

A pick-up game is one spontaneously started. Unlike exhibition games, there is no sense of obligation or commitment to play. Pick-up games usually lack officials and referees, which makes them more disorganized and less structured than regular games. Without formal rules and regulations, pick-up games are often played with a less rigid set of rules.
