MLB Pitch Hit & Run

17328335243_58304db2b0_zLast night Brian’s age group of Sault Area Little Leaguers participated in Major League Baseball’s Pitch, Hit, & Run competition. Of course it was a typical Michigan day here in late May, with the temps barely above 40, and that ‘brisk’ wind pouring off Lake Superior, blowing the kids’ hats every which way. The kids up here are tough, though, and they all did a great job. Brian didn’t win any of the categories, but he made a strong showing at each one. He’s playing for the Cubs this season, and really looks good sporting the blue and red! Our first game is next week, but the competition sponsored by MLB was a good experience for the team.

And who didn’t pull up a little grass while ‘patiently’ waiting our turn?
