Well Hello Everyone !
Been a while, so let's get started.
The weekend started off with Nick's first baseball game of 2010. Nick's team is Thunder (Cap Division). Very exciting and COLD ! Showers off and on. We were playing our new rivals, the Muckdogs. Trust me, it's going to a rival all year. Long story. Anyway, the kids actually pitch at this level. It was really cool. Nick played the whole game. Playing, 3b, SS, CF, and 1st base. He also batted 2nd in the line up. His first at bat you could tell he was pretty nervous. Swing at balls over his head and in the dirt. Struck out. Next at bat he battled hard to a full count before hitting a single to left. Last at bat.....another battle to full count ending with a laser line drive to right ! He got on twice and scored twice. Played great in the field too. Had a great snag over at first for a big out in the inning. Lots of fun ! If I had to guess, I think he will be pitching in one of the games this week. I'm sure his Mom and Dad will be a wreck. Already have 2 great pitchers don't want another one ! Next game is Thursday !
Sunday we traveled up to Hemet for some Softball. Beautiful facility, but super cold !! Anyway, Mystic started off against OC frenzy. Our starter got in trouble right away. Kylie comes in with bases loaded, 2 nothing and 1 out. Strikes out 2, back to the dugout ! She ends up pitching 5 innings strikes out 6, but no Mystic bats means a loss. She did real good. Had 1 at bat and walked. Next up was Fury. They came out blasting, Mystic down 3-0 in the first. But, the bats came alive and started pounding the ball. Kylie, contributed in right field and at the plate. Ball hit to right and Ky gunned the ball like a laser at home. Pitcher cut it off too early. Would have been a great play . Oh well. She hit hard and walked and scored. Good game. Mystic wins 7-3.
Next up was West Coast Voodoo. Mystic was down again 2-0. But, once again the bats came alive. They crushed the ball. Kylie again hit well and laid down a nice sacrifice bunt to advance the go ahead run. Mystic comes back big and wins 8-4. Busy weekend ! Same next weekend. Stay tuned !
