Another baseball night of show stopping plays. Tyler started off in right field. For the next 2 innings he played catcher. With 1 out Tyler threw the ball to 2nd to attempt to get out the steal. After a missed catch and an over throw to 3rd Ryan threw the ball back to homeplate to get the runner out. Tyler caught the ball and got the runner out. Yeah!!! Unfortunately, while Tyler jumped for the ball the runner ran into him and knocked him over. Tyler landed on the ground with the runners shoe in his calf. After a minute on the ground Tyler spent the rest of the game in the dugout with an icepack on his leg. Once the game got going again Aaron was looking for the game ball. Guess where it was grandpa... still in his glove in the dugout. It's a bit sore but he'll be ready for the game tomorrow night.
On another note Tyler is a leader for 14 kids ages 5 to 9 at Vacation Bible school this week. Yesterday he had an exciting day of fending off a 9 year old boy who liked to talk back and a 7 year old boy who likes to eat rocks and apparently swallowed 8 of them while participating in an outdoor activity. At one piont Tyler said he had to tell the kids to "get in a straight line" because they were all running around and not paying attention. Only 3 more days left...
