Boys at ATA and Cold Baseball

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Yesterday, the boys went with Rachel to school. Since they are remote, they can do school from anywhere.  They went with Rachel to school and got on to their classes from there.  On their break, they played tennis.  For lunch, Rachel took them to Einstein Bros Bagels and picked up bagels.

This morning, Evan had two baseball games.  They started at 8am.  It was 50 degrees, drizzling and very windy.  It made for a fairly miserable temperature for the game.  Evan played third in the first game.  In the top of the first, he fielded a ball cleanly but then the throw was not good and he got an error. He told me that he couldn't feel his hands when he was throwing the ball.  He made up for it in the bottom of the inning.  With two outs and runners on second and third, he lined a single over the shortstop to score two runs.  In the second inning, he fielded a ball with a runner at third.  The runner broke for home and he made a perfect throw home to get the runner.  In the second game, he caught the whole game.  He did very well, though he only had one opportunity to throw a runner out.  The throw wasn't as good as last week and he didn't get the runner.  Unfortunately the game ended in a loss on a wild pitch.  Evan did his best to try to stop it.  He then got the ball and flipped to the pitcher with what seemed like plenty of time to tag the runner from third.  But the runner managed to avoid the tag and scored the winning run.

We came home and got Noah and then met the Ramatis for some food at the Grove.  We had not seen them since Evan's Bar Mitzvah.

In the late afternoon, there was a block party (with masks) with pumpkin carving going on.  It was nice talking to the neighbors.

We picked up food from Via 313 for us and Subway for the boys for dinner.

The boys are upstairs playing and we're going to watch a movie.

Until next time...
