This weekend I went to my first ball game with Poppi, Mommy, and Daddy. We were invited by Coach Edwards to see his team play in the college tournament. Coach Edwards is a very famous coach and I was excited to see him in action.
I had so much fun!!!
I wore some funny looking things on my neck; someone said they were the team colors. I always do my best to support the team.
I danced to the music with Poppi.
He made lots of funny faces and made me laugh.
Enough of that, though....it's game time!!
The games were so close and exciting...I was on the edge of my seat the whole time (mostly because I was sitting on someone's lap)
Hofstra won the first game on Friday, and they played again on Saturday.
It was hot and sticky, but I was a good girl. Mommy and Daddy took good care of me and kept me cool.
Between one of the innings, Mrs. Edwards and I had a fascinating conversation about the fundamentals of softball and how that correlates to the strategies each coach utilizes during the tournament. We also had a lively debate as to which was a better predictor of performance: OBP or Batting Average.
Unfortunately, my girls lost and it was very sad. I don't like it when people lose, especially my friends. I think the team should be happy that they played very good games.
I am looking forward to seeing them play again next year.
Next time I will have my very own glove so I can help them win!!
Until then, I will just keep supporting the team.
