Not One, But Two

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning went well.  The boys were in good moods.  We drove to school.  I had some things to do so I didn't have time to walk.

I had a meeting later in the day with Rachel's cousin, Aaron so for the first time in a long time, I didn't pick the boys up from school.  Rachel went alone.

When I got home, I made Evan dinner.  He and I needed to get to warm ups for his baseball game.  Noah stayed at home with Rachel.  They came later to the game.

Evan's game went well.  His team didn't play well initially but they came on strong at the end.  Evan was 3-for-3 with a single and not one but two HRs.  In the first inning he hit a ball wall that went between short and third for a single.  In the third, he hit the ball very well to right center that went all the way to the fence.  Evan raced around the bases for an inside-the-park HR.  He came up again in the 4th and this time he hit a long ball that landed about 10 feet from the left center field fence.  He came around again for a home run.  He made some other plays including almost turning a double play.  He fielded the ball at shortstop, stepped on second base, but the second baseman got in his way slowing him down enough so the throw was late to first.  He also played third and made a nice tag, though the umpire (incorrectly) called the runner safe.  The umpire made the right call given his positioning but the problem was that he was not positioned well.

We came home and the boys are now in bed.

Until next time...
