Red Shirt and Hat



I had read on the internet the Ashton Men’s Fastball League was looking for players.  So Laura went out on Thursday night to see them play.  I brought my equipment with me.

When we got there, there was no one around.  We thought the game started at 7 pm.  We waited and one player showed up.  He thought the game started at 7 pm too.  There was a concession stand at the park.  The lady there thought the game started at 7 too.

At about 7:30, a few other players showed up.  We found out that because one of the teams had dropped out of the league, they had changed to one game a night and decided to start the game at 8 pm.

There was one guy I knew.  He told me to suit up and get in the game on his team.  I even pitched a few innings because they have a rule that a pitcher can only pitch a maximum of 4 innings.

Later Laura gave me some Father’s Day presents from Vancouver.  They included a red baseball hat and a red tee shirt.  Now I wear them every Thursday night when I play for the red team in the Ashton Men’s Fastball League.
