Joseph's team, the Red Sox, finished off the Season with only one loss . . . which really was a tie game that reverted back to a previous inning (strange rules). Joseph had some fantastic coaches that really taught the boys skills. They practiced 1 1/2 hours before each game . . . particularly in the batting cage in the coach's backyard. The Red Sox took 1st place in the regular season. Now on to the tournament!
Joseph even had a chance to pitch in one of the games. He also played left and right field, as well as 2nd base. The outfield gets a lot more action in this division and Joseph caught a lot of fly balls out there. Usually you would see a few home runs a game on his team. Joseph had some great hits that came near the fence, but not over . . . maybe next year!
He had a nice outfield hit at this at-bat, but the outfielder caught it.
Joseph also was a great base runner and often was the substitute for injured players. Here he's on 3rd, trying to steal home.
Orrin also was a great base runner for his team. He stole home several times.
Orrin's team did all right but ended up in 8th place, overall. Hopefully they'll do better in the upcoming tournament and hopefully Orrin will get over his "ball fear" after getting hit by the ball a few times this season by the pitcher.
