Mr. Boy got three hits and two runs in this afternoon’s 25-13 victory over the Rivercats. The Muckdogs are 5-1 for the season now, but have two more games this weekend–one tomorrow and one on Sunday. Mr. B.’s three hits were a double and two singles, and he drove in runs each time. But if the other team had been good at fielding, he’d likely have been out on the singles. The Rivercats just turned out to be worse hitters than the Muckdogs. Neither shined on the field. They have progressed a little. I no longer see them run for cover when a pop fly is falling their way. Now they tend to stick their gloves out, while cringing off to one side. Only rarely, of course, the ball falls in the glove. But these are 7 and 8 year olds.
