Spring Training


The Beaner takes to the batting cage in "pepperation" for the up-coming try-outs with the summer traveling team, The Monkeydoo Peppers. And while she may not always look like she knows what she is doing with that bat, one of her school Geography teachers (sometime-softball- batting-coach) can tell you different.
It was only last weekend when the coach was in the cage showing Beaner some batting techniques. One strategic foul tip later, the coach was on the sidelines with a fat, bloody lip, and Beaner was still swinging away.
Not too many kids can claim giving a teacher a fat lip. And as an old baseball coach for Crazy Pete would say... "it's your own fault if you get hit by a ball." So following that logic, Beaner can say the coach had it coming.
Ahhh yes, Spring is almost here.
