longest baseball game




this weekend carter participated in the longest baseball game. our town is trying to get into the guinness book of records and will be playing baseball for 36 straight hours. each player was asked to get donations and the top fundraisers can win a dinner with curt schilling. here is carter's page if you want to take a look...

we had a lot of fun yesterday at the field. we played in the longest game, and then we also had our scheduled game. the kids had a blast, and mason is always excited to play with his friend rowan. i managed to hit my quota of socializing.

tonight they are asking all the players to return to the field at 7:00 for the final hour. after the game all the players will be on the field to throw their hats in the air.

ETA: here is a link about the game.

it was amazing to see all the kids on the field at the end of the game when they threw their hats in the air.
