A Win for the Wolverines

Wolverines vs. Eagles
6-4 WIN!!!

Tuesday, April 18 -- Bailey's first softball game of the season. I don't know what is wrong with her Mother - but no pictures from the game. =-( But - have to report that the Wolverines are now 1-0. Bailey started the game at 3rd base but saw little to no action. Her first at-bat and she was hit by the pitch - walk. She struck out the other two at-bats -- but went down swinging -- much better than having that bat stuck on her shoulder. She sat out a couple innings and played Center Field the rest of the time. This is Bailey's first year in the Intermediate league. She is playing with 6th & 7th graders - many of whom play softball year-round (can you imagine?!). I think she's been a little intimidated by the speed of the pitches, the experience of the older girls and all of the new skills necessary to play in this league. She's also a little frustrated to be sitting out and playing positions she'd rather not play. Agh - such is life. GREAT opportunity to show a good attitude and learn from your teammates and coaches - no matter where your cleats are parked. Another game on Thursday - and THIS time I'm bringing my camera!
