Tad's Life

Jonathan is pitching! Baseball. With real live friends standing at the plate waiting for him to whip that thing past their waists!

There aren't enough kids to form more than two teams at DA. And, needless to say, the Senegalese schools don't play baseball! So on Tuesdays and Fridays for a few weeks, they are forming into two teams and playing. Four of the kids have been designated pitchers by the coaches and they are taking turns.

There have been more than a few batters hit by pitches. And many of those hit were girls, much to the embarassment of the pitchers!

But they are having a great time and I'm pleased as punch for Jonathan to get the experience.
