So, today is the last game for the CCS Middle School Boys baseball team.
What a year.
We have given up 75 runs in 5 games. We have scored 9.
Needless to say, we are 0-5. Today, Strong Rock comes calling. I have promised myself to enjoy the opportunity I have been given to hopefully influence the kids for the better, rather than escalating my blood pressure by letting the 12-16 errors a game get to me. I want to focus on the little things. Winning an inning is a victory for us. Which actually happened in our last game versus Westwood Christian. We scored 2 in the 5th inning, they scored none. The two runs came off the bat of "Smalls," our resident motormouth, home schooled his whole life so he lacks social aptitude, cartwheels in between plays, batting gloves in the field and no batting gloves at the plate, reserve second baseman. Irony, anyone?
So, let's play ball....or at least play with it.
