Are You Ready For Some Baseball

Luke had his first Baseball game today in Clinton. The Coaches arranged a scrimmage with the Clinton Comets. Luke's team doesn't have much competition in Cedar Rapids, so we will have to travel more this year. I wasn't able to go to this game because I stayed in C.R. to watch Connor. Luke's team played great and looked really good from what I understand.

Connor had his first game today against the Benton Bobcats. They did not win but looked good for not practicing much. Connor looked great, at bat. He had a great hit right between the center fielder and right fielder. If he was a little faster with the feet, it would of been a triple but he got a rbi. I have a feeling when he gets a hold of the ball this year it is going to fly. He also played great at first base, for not much fielding yet.

I didn't take many pictures because it was cold. These are two of Connor's buddies that I happened to get a picture of.

The forecast doesn't look too good, more snow, so I am not sure when we will get some more baseball in. Luke is fortunate to have access to the Perfect Game facility, so he is there tonight practicing.

If you are going to be a champion, you must be willing to pay a greater price.-- Bud Wilkinson

I think I told you that this is the first baseball season in about 19 years that I have not had one of the boy's games to go too. Sort of weird. I am looking forward to updates. I got you that dark green nail polish because I thought it would match the green uniforms - but I am sure it is not flip flop weather for you yet.
