[26 Year Gap]

With runners on first and third, and no outs, the batter teed up the ball and hit a little pop-up right to this kid, who caught it, a one in a million catch in a tee ball game, according to my supervisor. The runners are taught to start running on contact, so this kid just stepped on second base, and then ran over and stepped on first base. He had an unassisted double play the next inning. Today my supervisor told me that this kid made another unassisted triple play this past weekend. This kid in the only one on the team that wears cleats instead of sneakers, and he is the only one on the team that has his own bat, that he carries in his own bat bag, again, the only one on the team with a bat bag. Give him a contract.

They keep track of outs? When my son played, everyone had one at bat each inning. Didn't matter how many were on each team. I gotta give this one a thumbs down.
