Our first week of Baseball this year is down and ended with 3 wins and an unfinished game! Not a bad start!
Eli's Pee Wee team won their first 2 games and did pretty well! Eli enjoyed it!
Then on Friday night the Minor league ("brothers") team was to play. Just before we walked out the door I thought I should check my email. Turns out to be a good thing. A parent had emailed and one of our boys had broken his arm. He's out for several weeks. We already had 1 boy who was going to be gone for Friday's game, so now we needed a second replacement. I was worried, but Eli was "called up". He is VERY young for this league, but we didn't have much choice with only minutes until game time and down one player! My last instruction was, don't get hit, especially in the head!
Why I said that, I don't know!
He got up to bat and of course... "Took one for the team", right in the helmet!
He was OK, but it didn't do good for my heart!
He was so excited he got on base both time up to bat!
Nathaniel started out the night on the mound! He did well until he faced his best friend, Kolton! He allowed one hit in the 2 innings he pitched (it was to Kolton). :)
The game ended up being called at the top of the 3rd inning. Not sure when we will finish, but it was a nasty hail, thunderstorm that came through.
So the minor boys won their first game and didn't finish their second!
This week there are 2 minor games and 1 pee wee! Maddie and I will miss some due to Mother/Daughter banquet and a discipleship meeting.
We're for sure off to a good start in the Adkins home as far as Baseball goes!
