2020 Select Baseball
We played some of the best defense I’ve ever seen any 8U play today, had 2 gremlin innings, and went 0-1-1, which is 0-2 because there are no ties in baseball. Got a salty team 1st tomorrow, if we can get by them, I like our chances. Either way, they learned not to run on Canes #12 3rd baseman today...but it took them a while![emoji23]
Something that I’ve learned this year, is the value of a great minded bunch of kids, great parents, and a coach you believe in! We have always been lucky to have “most” of that in the past, but this group is so stinking much fun to be around. The moms planned a surprise baby shower for the coaches wife today between games. She is at every game, and pregnant with their first kiddo. Then we went to a parents house and they played whiffle ball for 2 more hours while the coached pitched. Then we had dad homerun derby off the pitching machine @60mph, which yours truly won, right AND left handed...after about 8 beers.[emoji23] While the “kids” swam.
Good times! Good luck to everyone in the morning!

I think he spent some time in the cooler about the time the astros cheating deal came out, and has been on a self imposed hiatus since. I don’t know that to be fact, just what I heard, but he is missed.
I hope he and Tanner the maniac catcher, are having a good season.

Good stuff Dale. Stay around that type environment as long as you can. It’s tough because teams get pulled apart for various reasons. We still hang out, talk and text with parents from Luke’s 10U team.
BTW...3 for 5 w/4 RBI today. [emoji41]

Headed to Gulf Shores this coming Tuesday to get our 9U's back on the field for real games for the first time in forever. Will be a little short handed as our top two pitchers families still aren't comfortable playing tourneys. Win or lose, will just be good to have the boys together in an actual competitive atmosphere...
BTW, any Gulf Shores tips/recommendations you may have would be greatly appreciated!

We took the boys to Beaumont this weekend and went 5-0 they played the best defense I have ever seen them play. The bats came alive at the right time as well. I have just one more weekend with my boys and I will be hanging my coaching hat up. My son will be a freshman this year so it’s time to just focus on him.

Boys went 5-1 over the weekend, losing only the last one.[emoji35] They played really well, and Brady is finally driving the ball again. He had a couple homers and a couple triples, off the fence, solid defense. Hate to lose the last one, but they were glad to get rings after battling the heat.
