Batter Up! It's Baseball Season in Barron!

It is that time of year again--time to oil up the glove, lace up the cleats, and dust off the hat. Summer baseball had officially begun in Barron!
~~~
Andrew had his first baseball game of the season last week against Cameron. Unfortunately, I don't remember the score (okay, I never knew it--I just know we scored ALOT and Cameron scored just a few...). We didn't have the scoreboard lit up for the game...
~~~
Andrew played outfield and shortstop for the game. We played after the Varsity play off game was done, so it was getting dark by the time our game was done at 9:00. It was a good thing we won after 5 innings by the "ten-run rule", or it would have been a really late night!
~~~
Here is Andrew at shortstop, waiting for the ball.

Number 23 at the plate.

Waiting for the pitch...~~~
He sees a good pitch coming...~~~
...and he makes contact! See the ball by the red arrow?! Unfortunately, THAT hit was a foul ball, but it was still a good picture!

:-) ~~~
Andrew will be playing most Tuesday and Thursday nights throughout June, so I will have plenty of baseball to blog in the future.

Stay tuned!
