Mother's Day at the Ball Field

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning I got up and all three boys were awake.  Josh and Evan got in their uniforms.

We stopped at Donut Taco Palace on the way to the fields.  Josh actually got breakfast tacos.  Normally, Evan and I just get donuts.

Evan started the first game and held the other team in check.  We played a full six inning so Evan played second base in the final three innings.  He did well and made some nice plays.  He was 1 for 2 with a hit and a walk.  We won that game.

In the second game, Evan played second base the entire time.  Evan continued to make good plays in the field.  He grounded out in his first at bat and then walked in his second at bat.  Towards the end of the game we were losing.  We needed to get some outs to have the opportunity to come back.  There was one out and a kid crushed a line drive to Evan's right.  Evan leapt in the air to his right almost horizontal and caught the ball, rolling on the ground when he came down.  The parents went crazy.  His teammates went crazy.  The kids were coming over to him and high-fiving him.  The next batter got out and I thought the momentum had shifted.  Unfortunately, it did not and the Bucs lost.

Rachel and Noah came to the second game.  They were able to see Evan make that catch.

We did stuff around the house in the afternoon.

For dinner, we went with Grandma and Papa to North by Northwest.  It was very good.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...
