Tonight I was in the mood for a little Orange Crush.
No, not that Orange Crush... This Orange Crush.
The young un started his fall baseball season tonight in the 10U age group. It's his first year with a "kid" pitcher and gave him quite a lot to think about, especially when the batter before him got a fast ball right to the shoulder blade!
Orange is not my color (I looked like a big traffic cone!) but I donned my new orange t-shirt and cheered them on.
We lost 8-4, but cookies made the loss a little easier to handle.
Also, we had a great quote come out of it:
I told the young un to hit the showers as soon as we got home and to make sure to wash the sweaty parts extra good. He replied- "Soon I'll have hair and then I'll be a man!" I fell on the floor laughing as he swaggered down the hall...
