Tournament news

We thought it would get rained out, but Makenna had a tournament on Sunday. They only won one game, but after a little chastising they played 2 great games! Makenna played short stop the first 2 games, didn't get a lot of action, but hit well and stole bases like no body's business. The 3rd game she caught, of course being a catcher myself, I am a little partial to her playing that position. However, she is SOOOOO good back there!! She is a total natural! Don't get me wrong, she is a great short stop, but as good as she is there, she is that much better behind the plate. She threw 2 girls out at 2nd, a girl out at 3rd and caught a girl in a pickle and tagged her out at home. She only let a few balls get by her and she was taking chance after chance at throwing an out at 3rd until they just weren't leading off anymore. She laid down the most perfect bunt and instead of stopping at first and just kept going and took 2nd...the other team had NO IDEA what to do! Very clever!!! The last game she caught again and did very well, we had some bad calls, no really...bad calls! Not that they would have made a difference in the outcome, but non the less....I have photographic PROOF of one of the bad calls!!! Either way, she played great and that's all that matters!!!

Of course you have photgraphic proof, you always have your camera! Glad to hear Makenna played well and you didn't get rained out.
