Miles is playing the Downers Grove version of Little League baseball this spring/summer for the first time. So yesterday and today have included some practice sessions to get ready. We went to a second-hand sports store and found a great pair of Nike baseball cleats for $12, and a nice bat for under $10. My key at DGN got us into the batting cages yesterday, and this morning we went to the neighborhood ball park with Miles' friend Mickey for some outdoor Spring Training.
Miles will be playing for the Phillies this summer, which he is very excited about since the real Phillies won the World Series last fall. Stay tuned for more baseball and laughs (not necessarily in that order).
