I was lazy and didn’t take any pictures, so I’m posting some photos Eli took last Sunday instead.

πŸ”₯ Play of the Day: Kelvin’s catch in right field

The vibes were great today as Bob was back. The pitching machine was turned up a notch, and most hitters found it challenging early on. By their second at-bats, though, everyone made solid adjustments and started finding their rhythm.

The play of the day goes to Kelvin, who made an incredible effort play, tracking the ball all the way from deep center field into shallow right. He sprinted at full speed and made a diving catch.

We didn’t have enough players to formally vote and present the award today, but Kelvin will get something next Sunday.

It was a windy day at the field, giving hitters a boost as the wind helped carry balls over left field. With a smaller group of eight, everyone got three at-bats. David got Taco Bell to wrap up the day.

πŸ”₯ Play of the Day: Jackson’s Home Run

It was a perfect day for some baseball. With 11 players showing up, the energy was great, with plenty of action and a lot of great moments. Everyone got involved and made the most of the beautiful weather.

The highlight of the day definitely goes to Jackson, who crushed a home run to center field. Great turnout, great vibes, and an all-around awesome time on the field.

Hi all,

The winter break from baseball continues because the sky is falling.

Keep an eye out for year-end report notices next week. I'll send each named person a redacted version of the report. If you have any comments on the report, or would like to be represented differently or not at all please let me know. If you don't respond to this request for consent to publish I'll remove references to your identity. To say it another way, participants must actively opt-in to identifying presence in the year-end report. I plan to publish the report in the first week of February.

Hi everyone. Come play some baseball with us at the park by the west entrance to the caldecott tunnel Sunday at noon. We have many extra gloves now, a ball bucket painted like a baseball, and a folding scoreboard.
