Welcome

What a great time I had yesterday.  My wife Jeanne has been going to our friend Sara’s ball game every Saturday this summer.

I haven’t gone to any of the games because it was hot and it too early for me.  Okay, I can hear you chastising me, and I deserve it.

But yesterday it was not hot, and the final game started an hour later, which really worked for me.

It was a pretty long way from the parking lot to the ball diamond, but I made it fine and got to count the walking as exercise.

So briefly each team get to let everyone on the team bat.  There are no strikes or balls called and most of the players get a hit and if not they can use the tee.

All most all of the hits turn into home runs with lots of high fives and congratulations from all the coaches and players.  It is wonderful to see.

The announcer is amazing.  He has a nick name for all the players and is a cross between Bob Uecker, and Harry Carry.  He keeps everyone laughing and really makes all the players feel like they are in the big time.

Oh, did I mention they don’t keep score.  Which, is great because it’s all about the players having a great time, which they all do.

Enjoy your day and be careful.
