SOFTball? PSSSHH!!!

My 2nd game was yesterday. SO much fun. The nerves are starting to dwindle. I'm getting used to being out there and having and audience. I get the jitters when I first step onto the field, but then after I get some action, they pretty much go away and the adrenaline starts pumping. So last week was our 1st placement game and we didn't win. Yesterday was our 2nd placement game and WE WON! Ah woo woo! It was a really good game. By the 2nd inning they were scoring left and right. We had to do major catching up. But we pulled it off. You know the line... "Don't call it a come back...cuz I've been here for years" LOL. Seems the girls were the MVPS of the night. On 2 different innings, with 2 outs, it was us girls that started rollin' in the RBI's. I think we're going to be getting shirts soon. But in the meantime I'm rockin' a throw back jersey from my summer travel ball team, with my #1 on the back, from when I was playing w my girls from high school.


So I still wanna try and get some more pics of the games. But soon. But I'm here to prove there ain't no SOFT in Softball. PSSSHHH!! Look at this shiner! And I'm proud of it! I took it like a champ! lol Most people would look at this and say, "Ok you know you're suppose to catch the ball with the glove right? Not your arm." But that wasn't the case. The story goes, I was on 3rd base and I took a lead. Our next hitter up to bat hit a one bouncer straight to me. I had like zero time to move out of the way. So naturally all I could do was try to catch it or stop it. Somehow I stopped it with my arm. lol I sorta lost my balance and fell over. But it was all good. Our batter Chris, ended up bringing in a few RBI's so it was worth it.


We have another game 2mrw night. We'll see what sort of injuries I get then. BRING IT!
