We Have An Injury
See those baseball stitch marks? The Politician caught a ball with his face last night. He went to the dugout for a bit but headed back on the field pretty quickly.
He was actually kinda proud of his battle-wound when I asked him if I could take a picture of it before bed last night. But you can see he's pretending to be sad in the photo......
We lost our third game of the playoffs last night, but we've got another chance tonight since it's double elimination. Good luck Cubs!

Bat Girl Sasha
I'll be keeping the Big Book at P's tball game tonight, and since it's been 17 years (!) since I was a bat girl, I'm off to google "baseball book keeping".
I know I need some sunflower seeds and a pencil, that's for sure.

Tball is Over
Above is The Politician with his trophy. He is so proud and really had a good time.
We did notice a few things we'll have to work on with him before next year. For one thing, he hasn't quite got the concept of running the bases down. In this league, each time someone bats, everyone advances one base. The last batter is the "clean up" batter and P pretty much thinks that a home run and jockeys for that spot in line every time.
But he also passes others who aren't running as fast as him. After he batted last in the last inning, he passed the runners on 1st and 2nd and made it home before they did. And he was so proud.

And the parent rivalry is already starting. I got down on my knees and positioned myself where I could take some shots of all our players batting to share with the other parents. One of the other team parents got all huffy about where I chose to be and said all snottily "Could you move? I can't see my son."
Listen lady, he's 3. He's going to stand there in the field and not do anything. At all. He might put his glove on his head, he might do a little jig, but he's really not going to do anything you haven't seen before. And in 10 seconds he's going to go chase a butterly and head 5 feet to the left anyway. Chill the F out. This ain't the Majors.
