Fall Ball has not be going as well as we may have hoped. Its a much harder league with much bigger boys, but the team has gotten better as the season progresses. Scores so far are as follows...8/24/09: Lost 24-3
8/25/09: Lost 23-1
8/31/09: Lost 18-4
9/2/09: Lost 15-0
9/8/09: Lost 12-5
9/10/09: Lost 11-3
9/15/09: Lost 11-0
9/17/09: Tied 4-4
The team is very proud of that tie! Out of the 20 total runs our team has scored so far this season, Alex and Brady have either scored or drove home the majority of those runs. They are playing well and it has been good experience for them to hit against tougher, faster pitching. Wish the outcomes would have been better, but at least they are learning something. Next week maybe we will squeak out a win!
FYI: The picture in this post is an example of the size of these boys, they are all 12 and under, but some are bigger than the coaches. Also I know my boys are on the small side, but most of the kids on their team aren't much bigger than Alex and Brady. We are definitely out of our league.
