First Day of Baseball

Today was the first baseball practice of the season for my new team. At least the first one I made. They've had a few, but I was up snowboarding both times. I was surprised about how different it was from the Shack.

I knew a few of the players from last year, but most were new. And they were rusty. Lots of throws a little wild, lots of missed batting practice, definitely a change from previous years. But they're losing 2 players out of 15, so it should be a pretty good year, and I think I'll get more time at a variety of positions.

I fielded OK, but didn't see a lot of balls. I hit OK, not great, but I had some guy throwing, not really pitching, and didn't see a lot of great pitches. However I still need to get in more practice.

Looking forward to the season, about 5 weeks away.
