Torture...otherwise known as T-Ball

For those of you who have not yet had the pleasure of experiencing the exciting phenomenon of TBall, you have nooooo idea what you are missing. An hour long adventure of 4-6 year olds, most of which are waaaaaay more interested in wrestling, rock throwing, whining, drinking up all their gatorade in the first 5 minutes of the game...then searching for the porta potties, stealing each others' hats,rolling in the dirt...and this is just for warm-ups.
The last thing most of them seem to want to be doing is standing on a hot baseball field paying attention to the ball which may or may not ever make it past the pitcher's mound.

However, there are a few standouts. We do have some
Superstar athletes...(I happen to think this one is adorable!)


Hall of fame home run hitters! (I am partial to #6)


Experienced, world class coaching staff (heeheehee)


and each team has a "sleeper"
Can't blame the kid. It's a looooong hour.

GO BIG BLUE!
