I played softball in our league for 20-plus years, and I don’t think I ever saw anyone fall flat on his or her face en route to first base. Apparently running the bases isn’t as easy as it looks. I have seen a batter or two spin around and collapse after a lusty swing and a miss. Most embarrassing.
Anyway, my brain’s feeling tired and I needed some comic relief.
She’s not running bases, but fielding. And I have seen people fall doing that!
I was thinking of the guy who bellyflopped on his way to first base.
I need to go to more softball games. 🙂
Going to watch T-Ball games is a lot of fun. Some of the players are so small that after they actually hit the ball they lose their way to first base as the adults yell like crazy at them.
Nothing like a bunch of adults to spoil a kids’ game.
