Cubs lose

So Evan started his baseball tournament last night. They lost in the first round to a team they run ruled the last time we played them. We struck out 11 times! 11 times in a machine pitch game - it was awful. Evan had one of those which just thrilled me to no end. Luckily I was out beyond the fence watching my two year old so he didn't hear my displeasure. He ended up playing well, making some plays and hit the other time up but still it was no bueno.

Observations:
Baseball parents are worse than soccer parents. Its amazing, I'm convinced its because soccer isn't as popular so that parents can't really state an opinion. They have not played and lack some knowledge on the game. A lot of parents have played and watched baseball so they have their given right to state opinions. They think at least and are more than ready to state away.

Be careful when you gossip about how bad other parents are, you always seem to get close or below their level if your not careful.

Its 8 yr. old baseball - there are no scouts - mistakes can occur without the world ending.

Watching him have fun was the best part of the year!

Later
