Barron Bears Baseball

Austin played a double-header baseball game on Tuesday night against Luck. It was our only home game, it appears, as our previous home games were rescheduled to the opposing team's fields or cancelled because our fields were too wet. Bummer!

Austin plays center field this year on the C-Team. He is very good at this position, because he is fast and can cover a lot of ground in a little bit of time--which is important when you are covering an area that big. He also has a mean glove, so there are very few balls that get by him!

Unfortunately, Barron lost both games in the double-header Tuesday night. Austin only played in the first game, as there are so many kids that half played the first game, and half played the second game.

Here is Austin anticipating the pitch...~~~
Swinging the Big Stick!!!

Running in from the field--he is spitting out some seeds on his way in. You always have to have a mouth-full during baseball season!
It was fun to finally see the boys play baseball this year. They are almost finished with school baseball season, but then, the summer league will start right after school season, so we are just getting started with baseball season here in Barron!

Austin, it will be fun to watch a game this summer. I hope your mom will pass along the summer sports schedule.
