Uniforms didn’t get to the team in time, I informed the commissioner of that and was told TS (Tough Shiz), figure it out. Ok, NP (No Problem). Informed the parents that their child was to bring a white T-shirt and we needed some Sharpies.
Everyone came through and I laid out the guidelines before the games. They could pick whatever number they wanted, that included integers, fractions, decimals, etc. the only requirement was that whichever shoulder was face the pitcher had to have KMA on it. One player asked what that meant, one other one answered instantly. KMA was the first thing written on those T-shirts by every member of that team.

You "coulda" enhanced the communication of this message by simply leaving out the second coma (","). And have made two simple complete sentences out of it to enhance your linguistic skills.
