Tonight was the first night of our fall softball league. Seeing as how I haven’t played baseball since the summer after high school, I’m about 4 years out of practice. I think tonight was also the first time I’ve ever really thrown or caught a softball. After years of getting used to the weight and size of a baseball, it takes a little getting used to the giant softball. Our team (EB3 Motorsports) won the first game and lost the second game of our double header. Most of the people on our team are current or former AMSers, which is cool.
I was 1 for 3 with a triple and RBI. I should have done better, I flew out two times. I need to be a little more patient and wait for the right pitch, its hard passing up a lobbing arch. I also have to work on keeping my shoulder up and getting line drives. All in all, it was a good time and a nice escape from the daily grind. I can’t wait til next week for another doubleheader. Time to go hit the shower…
