It’s a quiet weekend in Glen Park. I went to a chilly softball pratice this morning. We were playing misty for me with the fog, a real switch from the hot temps last weekend. We went from shorts to hoodies. I’ll take the hoodies everytime.
Actually it’s hard to believe the ball season is almost over. At posting a 13-2 record, with one game left we’ve clinched both 2nd place and a World Series berth. It will be our 2nd trip and I’m really excited to be going. How excited? Well, as soon as it was announced I got online and got my tickets in a matter of minutes. Before last season I had about a 13 year gap before the last trip to the big game.
It’s nice that the ballclub can play well with the changes to the roster this season. Anytime a team changes out several players, it can time for the unit to gel but these folks hit the ground running.
This season I’ve been slowed a bit with an old left knee that sustained a player collision back in February, during the Palm Springs tournament. It’s getting better and now I’m also healing from a jammed finger that I got in a practice two weeks ago. There are times when you play you pay and it’s an older body I’m running around the field.
