My Last Game of the Season: Braves vs. Cardinals (May 2001)
I think we won (though the other team thinks that they won).
|
For the last game, the batting seemed more difficult, but with a little
help, I hit a single each of the two times that I was at bat. I
came home each time, and that added a run to the score for our team.

Playing second base was my most common fielding position.
My buddy Tim stood with me as I played. If any line drives
came whizzing at me, Tim was ready to give his life for mine! Tim
(and the other buddies) are volunteers from a nearby High School.
Tim was very friendly.

Mat is the coach's son and he is blind. His father
(John Weihmuller) pitches the ball to him underhand and counts for him--one,
two, three, swing. The coach then ducks behind the batting cage.
Boy did he need it during this game!
My Grandmas are a great support and form part of my fan club. Grandma
Woolley, Grandma Lovick, and (adopted) Grandma Riccio
are wonderful.

Celebration Time! Pizza and Trophies!
|
The pizza party was great. We played as a team and ate
as a team.
My coach awarded me with a trophy and said that I had
a great attitude (when playing baseball).

My family was proud of me. This was my very first trophy!
