So, I can only tell this story second hand, but it is amazing...
We've been really busy this summer and part of that is Timmy playing summer baseball. Which he loves and we love to watch. Although sometimes it is hard because it is the first level where the kids pitch, so you can imagine that the accuracy is pretty bad and we end up watching the kids walk a lot.
Well, after I left his game the other night (Sam and Max were driving me crazy) Tim's friend Evan got up to pitch. Well, this kid had great accuracy so was throwing strikes, but he didn't have much speed so the kids were able to hit him. This really made it a game. Now Tim tends to catch a lot (which is important with all the balls that fly in from the pitcher), but this time he was playing outfield.
Well a kid cracked a hit right out to him in right field. He bobbled it a little and it got past him slightly, so the batter was waved on to go to second... well Tim hussled after the ball threw it all the way in to the 2nd baseman where he had plenty of time to tag the kid out. Apparently our whole team went crazy and the mom's that also weren't there and that I've seen since were even talking to me about it.
So sad I missed it...
I will also warn you that next week is going to be even worse time wise for us. Tim starts football practice 4 nights a week, and it is also the last week of baseball, so this poor kid will have football from 5:30-7:30 and then go straight to his night games under the lights at 7:45. The games won't even be over until 9:30 or so. Luckily baseball is only 3 nights!!!
