Baseball Saturday

Our games this weekend were in Tukwila, which seems like a long way from here. Luckily, my in-laws live about halfway in between. We stopped there before heading to our first game only to discover that our first game had been rained out - again. We did get the 5pm game in, so we can now officially say that the RiverCats have begun their season.

I don't think I sat down for the entire game. If someone could somehow capture my nervous energy and utilize it for the good of the world, we'd solve the energy crisis. Josh batted second. He walked in the first inning and came around to score as the RiverCats put up four runs. It was all they would need.

The pitching was outstanding as Mitch, Zach and Jake threw a shutout for game #1 and the defense was near perfect. The good guys win 6-0.

Josh's highlight was lining a double over the right fielders head in the seventh inning. The runner on first attempted to score on the play, but was thrown out at home to end the inning. Kinda weird, cause that is the same thing that happened to Kyle in his first game.
