Glutton For Punishment

I'm going to coach our 10U Travel team tonight. Regular HC can't make it do to a commitment, so I agreed. Problem is, they are awful. I would usually feel bad about saying that, but it's inescapable.

I've practiced with these boys once in a while. But I didn't know what it actually was until I helped out at a game last week. To say they are bad is an understatement. They can barely catch and throw, so getting three outs without giving up 6-7 runs is a challenge. And you can't win many games giving up 6 runs an inning.

What I like is the coaches telling me how bad their at-bats are. I know that. But you can't even think of hitting unless you can get off the field. That's why when I coached my son's teams we focused on D when we were young. We can step into one if we have to so we can get on base.

Wish me luck.

I have two days off work coming up so that is AWESOME!
