Shoot me now. And remind me to never procrastinate on my kid's cake again while trying to get our house ready to throw a party that will likely get rained out
My offering. My 9 year olds Fortnite v Minecraft cake (because he couldn't decide)

Is it frowned upon to watch the game on my phone while coaching 3rd base for my son's t-ball game? Asking for a friend.
Nah, you're good, it's just T-ball.
I may have a harder time though in my son's 8u game because I'm the pitcher.
Wow, I didn't know that parents pitched in games now interesting. I played a little for fun softball growing up and we never had adults in the game and my brother played baseball from about seven or eight and they never did was back in the dark ages in the 70s.
How old are they when they start having a pitcher? And out of curiosity, what is the logic?
Ok, but this reminds me... I was sitting next to the Bama pitcher's mom last year in that Sunday game when we were allowed to sit wherever we wanted. She was telling a story about some of the guys going out hunting and getting their truck stuck in the mud, having to walk back to the road and have another teammate pick them up so they could be on time to make the plane, so... I guess they are the outdoorsy types.dabo man said:
Want to congratulate Bama on looking like a ballclub today and not a bass fishing team.
Did that all day yesterday also!Scooley01 said:
Stat tracker is pissing me off. If I refresh, it shows the current status for a split second before jumping backwards and freezing on two AB ago

Dad pitch has been around since at least the early 90s when my son played. It's a transition from t-ball to kid pitch. Most 7 or 8 year olds can't throw enough strikes to make games much fun and batters aren't as afraid of getting hit by a pitch if grown ups pitch.
Sometimes the best teams are the ones that have a dad who's good at throwing the ball to where the batter swings.
