The day had finally come. The first game of the season. Kid pitch, which in most cases means more than a few walks, pitches swung at way above their heads and a hit batter or three. Dan struck out his first at bat, pitched a few walks and a strikeout or two and got hit at his next at bat.
But Blinkey's Nobel Bar and Grill came to play their first home game and after 6 strong innings, lost 6-4. The season is young and there will be more games, walks, strikeouts, home runs and hit batters. I just hope Daniel is not on the receiving end of another fast ball to the thigh. I think tomorrow's blog might be a nice colorful shot of the bruise.
Little League baseball is a good thing because it keeps the parents off the streets.
