Game Day 4-9-09.........

Tonight was a tough, holding game on the Minor Field playing "Fowler". The first two innings started rough. Fowler's first pitcher threw some fireballs in the strike zone and we struggled at bat. It did not take long for IBEW to take hold of the game and put a stop to the overwhelming score board.

Joey, Owen, and Levi pitched a fantastic game! Owen was tagged in the leg with hit ball, but he beared through it and still got the ball to first base. After a little TLC from Coach Lance and his catcher, he shook it off and pitched on! Now that is one tough kid!

Zach H and Brayden did a great job catching and stopping Fowler from stealing soooo many bases.....great job to Zach H for tagging out a steal at home base.

Overall, tonight you could see IBEW making improvements and growing in the sport of baseball!!

Until we meet again at practice Monday!!

"Under the Lights" on Game Day 4-7-09

The boys took the Softball fields at Lawrence Scott Park tonight. This was their first late night game, beginning at 7:15 pm and ending at 9:15 pm. The big joke in our family was that we would have to leave early to make sure we made it to bedtime.....poor Zach H. begged his parents to not embarrass him....

A great hit was made by our one and only girl.....Carlee!! Great work out there today. Carlee, if you remember took a ball to the eye early in the season and has proven all the odds of being shy at bat WRONG. She smacked the ball tonight!! Also hitting tonight was Owen, Zach H, and Parker. Most of the team had a "great eye" at bat and therefore did not get the chance to hit, but took a base proudly as they were WALKED!!

Zach H pitched a ball to his batter that was struck right to him.....in his glove that is!! Owen made the best catch of the game when the batter fired the ball directly to him at short stop.....and he caught it, causing an OUT!! Great job out there Owen!

All of the boys and Carlee played exceptional tonight!! Great Job!

Game Day 3-27-09

IBEW walked on the Rookie field with the attitude to play ball tonight! The MVP today went out to Gabe, our newest member, who went above and beyond and played for the other team since they were short a player.....GREAT work Gabe to take one for the team!!

Gabe giving a little gray to the other team....
Coaches thinking strategies.....

Thanks again to Coaches Lance and Tom for donating soooo much of your time to teach our kids the game of baseball!!
