Take me out to the ball game....
We have (finally) started baseball! Matt is playing on the Central Coast Mariners in Morro Bay. This team is in the juniors division of little league. Last year, he & his buddy Edward, played on a San Luis Obispo team because juniors was not available on the coast. It feels great to be back home again! In 2 games (so far this season) they both have played more then they did the entire season last year!
We had our first game this past Saturday down in Grover Beach. (The first half of the season, all the games will be there.) It was a chilly windy day. Matt went something like 3 for 5 batting, he was the "closer" & pitched to 2 batters-walked one & struck the other out. We won 15-6. Great opening day!
We had the privilege of having Lindsay & Jonathan with us. (Thanks for your help with Maddie!)
We had our second game tonight. The weather was amazing! Gentle breeze. Matt started out at shortstop & then came in as a reliever for Edward in the middle of the 2nd inning. He gave up a few walks, a handful of hits, several strike outs and NO runs! All in all, a good night of pitching. 3 for 5 (or something close to that-old minds that just can't remember it all!) with the bat, with the hits all doubles. We won 11-3. The boys looked really good tonight.
