Team Mom= Does anybody know what I'm doing?

Hi
I know I'm not alone out there when I say "sure son I'll be the batter". (I'll be the one doing the belly dance darting your inside and behind my backside pitches)
You know they're always trying new ways of throwing Spit balls, fast balls, knucklesandwhich balls, OK that last one doesn't count.

What I have learned is you don't have to get all bruised up because you might feel guilty for not having more time with them.
First if you have garage or a backyard with a clothe line, go out and buy a tarp and some string or tie wraps and paint (like the kind Michael's or hobby section at any store)
Then:

A. Tie the upper part of the tarp to the garage or clothes line--either the long or short way--depending on how big a space you want to use.

B. Make an outline of a batter, you could have him/her or one of their teammates stand next to the tarp and trace their outline.

C. If you could put hooks on the tarp so you paint a left hand batter on one side and a right hand batter on the other side. This way you just unhook the tarp to use
either the right or left handed batter.

My son thought it was a crazy idea. But I would play the umpire and call strikes or
balls. Once I felt he had better control I would stand in front of the tarp and take a few swings.

P.S. At the bottom of the tarp don't make it tight. Let it have enough slack so that the ball stays by the tarp. You could use brick or something else to hold the bottom part in place. The problem with the tarp being to tight is that the ball being pitched might go through the tarp after a few throws. The worst that has happen to me was not ducking fast enough as the ball ricochet off the tarp. Another kodak moment missed..........

By the way when was the last time you had some Peanuts and Cracker Jacks.
Two great teams are going to play each other in July. So why not make it a mom and future MLB player day by getting a few pointers from watching the pros live and up front.

Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Tickets at Angel Stadium of Anaheim on Fri, July 18, 2008 7:05PM

I have two boys, one is a New York Yankee fan, and the other loves the Boston Red Sox. Me I like the Angles. So in July the Angels play the Red Sox and in August my Angles play the Yankee's. So I'll be getting a few extra "I love you mom" and
"need any help". Sports sometimes you can make them work in your favor...lol..

I'll be back later with some more idea's and survival tips. And I whole heartily believe the more they practice (especially at home)the better and more confident they become.
So keep your eye on the ball and your head down.
AND SEIZE THE MOMENT!!!
