Title: Just no way to explain it unless...
Post by: videoholic on February 28, 2005, 08:29:56 PM: You have a child...

Logan\'s first baseball game. He was the only kid on both teams who hit from pitch both times up. At 4 years old they give 5 pitches and then hit off Tee.

Bunch more pics here. Nothing better than 3 and 4 year olds playing ball.

It was a load of fun. I couldn\'t keep from jumping in and playing along during our practices.

Post by: CHIZZY on March 01, 2005, 07:58:09 AM: Heh.... that backhand will make him a force to be reckoned with. Hardest shot for a goalie to read. Does he have rollerblades? Get him on those things.

Post by: videoholic on March 01, 2005, 10:45:11 AM: No blades yet. One of the parents of a boy on his team has the full gear that we may buy off her. Only problem is with a kid\'s growth rate it is so freaking expensive to keep up.

Maybe if the Yankees had him instead of A-Rod, they might not have blown harder than a porn star in a bukkake film in the ALCS...

Post by: Titan on March 01, 2005, 11:46:31 AM: I remember playing baseball when I was a youngin. I sucked so bad that my coach put me in the outfield and the last to bat every time. Pricks all of them. I wanted to play hockey, I would have done better but my mom wouldn\'t let me. So, when I got into high school, I played lacrosse instead.

Post by: Paul2 on March 16, 2005, 12:53:07 AM: i don\'t know, i guess i am not into baseball or softball or whatever you guys called it. But i guess its one of many ways to bring a child self esteem, confidences, and social life up especially at your son\'s age.

I guess my childhood life where a teacher that teach literature and also a baseball coach who was unjustly mean to me had dirty the image i have about baseball or softball players/coach, etc. I wasn\'t into it to say the least. Not that all baseball players are bad people, just that not all sports/athletic people are nice.

I remember one time I was walking in the blacktop alone with no friends, a guy targeted me and he threw football right into my head. If I didn\'t notice and dodge on time, I will get hit. I remember the whole team was disappointed as i heard them saying "ugh..."

Again, just my opinion based on my experience....*me runs and dodges tomatoes at the same time*

You have to know what you suck at, and then run away.

Well I only had the camera out there a short bit, but yeah. Parents are out in the field with the kids until they are 5.
