Baseball

It amazes me how some coaches just don't know how to be good sportsmen. The past 2 teams the Mariners have played have been this way. Tonight, the other coach actually tried to accuse Adrian of using a non-regulation bat. GIVE ME A BREAK! Our coach handled it well though. He took the bat over and told him to check it. We even heard that coach yelling at his team. One of the umps was saying that coach is like that every game. I know that our coach can get a bit overzealous sometimes, but all in all, he's a decent coach. The Mariners won 17 to 10 to end the game early. Brantley hit 5 singles tonight. He also got hit by the ball in the neck while playing pitcher. He got hit but still made the throw to first base although the kid was safe. He came out for a couple of minutes and there was no respect at all from the other team. He was a trooper, though, and went back out to the outfield that inning. Way to stay with it Brantley! He came out in the next inning at first base and did a great job.
