Braves,
A good practice in the hot sun Wednesday, but our guys need to become more aggressive when they're batting -- the way they were in the first two games. Many of the players seem to be waiting for perfect pitches before swinging, but perfect pitches rarely come. Our motto for the next game should be "See it and hit it!" Anything you can do to reinforce that message at home would be great.
It was good to have Liam back on the field. He's a little rusty at the plate, but he made a nice catch of a tricky foul fly today.
FYI, it seems likely that the start of our game on Sunday, May 31, will be moved from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. to accommodate a makeup game at 4 p.m. I expect this to be confirmed very soon, but wanted to let you know now for planning purposes.
Practice again Friday at 4 p.m. Location is uncertain. If the high-school girls win their game Thursday, they will have a practice on the high-school field Friday and we'll have to look at Cahill or Cumberland. If the girls lose, however, their season is over and we can have the high-school field Friday.
As loyal WFB fans, of course we will be pulling for the girls to win on Thursday.
Dave, Rick, Ross
p.s. Please find some time to play catch with your Brave. Have him throw the ball back to you hard. We have some guys who have gotten into the habit of lobbing the ball. Runners in the Majors will take an extra base on soft throws, so we need to make sure that all of our throws are crisp and accurate.
