Last Thursday was the first game of the softball season. This will be Laura’s first year playing in Wee Pee. She is so exciting to be playing real ball this year. Malissa is playing Pee Wee ball. She is hoping that her hitting has improved. This year Megan has decided not to play. She prefers a more laid back and less serious approach to softball. So this year I have a babysitter!
Our first game is at Corning.
Little Laura might possibly be the smallest on the team. Her jersey is “0” and the smaller the number the smaller the jersey. It’s all she can do to haul that bat around.
But that didn’t stop her from getting a hit!
I love watching this age group. Everyone bats around. No scores are kept. We just learn how to hit the ball, which direction to run around the bases and where the different positions are. There is a lot of playing in the dirt. Laura did an entertaining dance in right field. She actually got hit by a ball while running the bases and shook it off like a pro (or at least like a sister used to rough and tumbling.)
Malissa is up to bat in her game following Laura’s game.
And she gets on base. The final score was a win for Baileyville at 18-4. The girls did a great job.
Good Luck girls on a fun and exciting softball season. This was a great start!
