Baseball and Soccer Wrap-up

Karl had his final baseball and soccer games of the season last Thursday. His first year of Pee-Wees was a great success—he did a bang-up job in the field, really improved his batting, and got a nickname of “Wheels” due to his speedy base running.

I’m getting a bit lackadaisical in my sports photography, but here are a few of the better baseball shots from this year.

Karl was eager for his final soccer game—if they won, they would complete a perfect season. True to form, they blew out the other team and Karl had a plethora of goals. Perfect season accomplished!

Unfortunately, it’s the same story with soccer pictures. Deborah, I’d take much better pictures if we just had a DSLR…

Karl had a huge cheering section for his last game. Grandma and Grandpa were there; Angie brought Colin, Justin, and Adam; and Brian, Jennifer, and Damon came too. Look how shy Damon is, hiding on his face in the ground.

The full contingent. The prior week, Karl’s team only mustered five players! All five of them played the entire game. Man, was Karl tired that day.

Karl and his friend Nick were a great pair in soccer.

These two kids are soccer buddies from waaaaaay back…all the way back to 2010.
