Last week I was able to see one of my nephew Sean's baseball games. His team is the Toronto Blue Jays, which just happens to be my favorite professional baseball team! He was so excited to tell me!
If you have not been to a Little League baseball game recently, you are definitely missing out! It was an absolute riot to watch (even though it was incredibly cold and windy). The coach of the opposing team, the Cincinnati Reds, was obnoxiously intense! He acted like he was coaching in the Major League and shouted instructions to every player throughout the whole game and called for multiple time outs to talk to his pitcher. Some of his players were in tears after his instructions! I found it incredibly amusing!
The Blue Jays, however, were not quite as intense! Their coach kept encouraging them by calling out, "Be ready, Blue! Be ready!" This was a necessary instruction as I noticed Sean picking dandelions when he was playing right field! Another Blue Jays player was turning somersaults throughout the game! When Sean came up to bat, he immediately struck out but, man, is he powerful! When he does actually connect with the ball, he will score a home run! Needless to say, Sean's team did not win but I sure did love watching him!
Note: Normally I really enjoy watching a red team beat a blue team!
