It's Baseball Season

So it's baseball season and both Tyler and Rayna have decided they wanted to be in teams this year, Hannah decided against it.  Rayna plays for the Pretty Pink Panthers and Tyler plays for the Gators.

 Watching the games can be quite fun especially Tylers team who at the start of the season struggled to understand the rules, on hitting the ball and being told to run they would, in any direction they thought was good.  Also when fielding they would flock to the ball ending up with a scrimmage of kids all fighting to get the ball (more often than not Tyler would come up with it).

To help Rayna with her batting we went to a batting cage a week or so ago and her sister came along to try out to, you can see the video below of them hitting the balls.

Although we paid for an hour the nice man in charge allowed us at least an hour and a half.  After a few minutes both girls got the hang of it and really started hitting the ball well.

So far both Tylers and Raynas teams have only won one game each but they've been close in several games and are having good fun with their friends.
