Fire up the T-Ball!



My 5 year old loves to play T-ball. I love to watch him play T-ball. And let me tell you, if you are ever bored on a Saturday afternoon and looking for a good chuckle or even a good belly laugh, go catch a t-ball game with 5 year olds. You may see the pitcher playing in the dirt or the shortstop picking dandelions. You may see the tee get hit more times than the ball. Or, you may see the three outfielders all chasing the ball, rolling around on the ground and fighting over who gets to throw it in. And if you are really paying attention, you may just see a cute kid point to center field and actually hit it there to score a home run. T-ball is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. (But you will be entertained!)

Side note: the score is usually 15-15. Why? With a 5 run rule each inning and they only play 3 innings. It is rare to see a team get 3 outs in an inning. But who's keeping score?
