First off, before I forget, we found a toy semi by our dugout. Does it belong to any of your kids? If so, I've got it.
On to the game....Fun times under the lights. Of course winning makes it nicer, but that was the kind of baseball game I like, 4-3, with some nice pitching.
Stat of the day....Jerald and Mickey didn't walk anybody. I love it! Walks drive me crazy. Yanks did a good job too, they only walked 2 Brewers (CJ and Dylan) and beaned 1 (Mickey).
Other stuff:Cody had a horrible first inning defensively. But he shook it off, made a catch at SS later in the game, and went 2-2 with the bat, with 2 really nice bunts. By the 2nd inning, he was over his bad inning, had a great attitude, and was cheering everybody on. I love to see that.
Mickey did a great job in relief. I really liked how he just bore down, and got outs. He gave up 2 hits to start the 6th, then struck out the next 3 to close it.
Paul mentioned this during the game... We had 4 errors in the first inning, and they only scored 1 run. In the 3rd, they had 2 base hits, and scored none. I'll take that.
Our batting is still a little shaky, but Jerald did go 3 for 3, and Cody went 2 for 2. Though as Cody told me, he got stranded at 3rd both times. C'mon guys, let's score Cody.
I will have details on practice and games, and pictures, and I Cubs and all that later this week. But is is getting late, so that is all for now. Thanks for changing your plans to make this go tonite. I think the kids really like playing under the lights, and we didn't have to cram it in later in the season.
