Scrimmage game done!
Met up with remnants of three other teams for a practice game, mostly for the benefit of us newcomers. Couldn't ask for better weather for baseball, and for Dublin that's a plus.
It's a different beast, man. I've been a baseball fan all my life, but I haven't been a baseball player at this point since before most of my coworkers were born. I've rediscovered that I don't have the intelligence for middle-infield, but stick me in any corners of any part of the field, and I'm happy. My batting was so-so. I've found that I'm a patient batter, but still drew one strikeout, a ground out, and a fly out. My last AB I managed to get myself walked, and that's not easy when it takes *7 called balls* for a walk. Stole second after that, too! My game is rusty but not terrible, and I can live with that for now.
I mean, at least it's not as bad as my photography🙃
First official game is next week in SF, Golden Gate Park. Your man will be in uniform by then, too.
