If the blog name 'All baseball, all the time' isn't taken, I might as well just go ahead and reserve it

Here is what I've learned about baseball in the one-twelfth of the season I've been involved in it:

1. You want your team to be great batters, and you want the other team's batters to suck.

2. You want your team to be great fielders, and you want the other team's fielders to suck.

3. When your team hits a ball, you don't want a kid on the other team to catch it.

4. When a kid on the other team hits a ball, you want DESPERATELY for a kid on your team to catch it.

THESE OBSERVATIONS ARE THE RESULTS OF VERY SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS.

My emotions are all over the map during the games. I don't care whether we win or lose (truly, I don't), but I WOULD love to see each of the kids get at least a base hit and catch a pop fly. It's hard for me to see some of the kids strike out over and over again. Mine included.

Of all the plays during practices and games so far, there's only been one that really made me laugh out loud. And I happened to capture it in real-time. Enjoy.
