Boys of Summer

Brian is playing baseball on a 16 -18 year old team from Hillsboro this summer. I know -- GASP, he's turning into a Kraut!! Marion didn't have a team this year, and they invited him to join them. He is having a great time, as he is playing with several kids from Hillsboro who have been on tournament teams with him in past years. Joining them are also some boys from Chase County and Goessel. They have gotten off to a tremendous start, going 6-0 so far. They have outscored their opponents 89-4!!

Brian got his first starting assignment as a pitcher last night and did very well. He pitched 4 innings, and didn't allow any runs. He struck out 6 and walked 3. He also contributed at the plate, getting 2 RBI's with a sacrifice fly to the warning track, and a single.

There are some tremendous baseball players on the team, and it is fun to watch them. Brian is soaking up the experience of getting to play with some older players from around the area. Keep it up boys, you're off to a great start!!
