A Hot Hot Sunday..

Sunday morning, a practice session planned for 9AM, at the John D Morgan Park in Campbell.

Was a scorching hot day, the numbers might've hit triple digits during the day. Chethan and Sri arrived with a bunch of bagels, Sammy/Vugs provided fruit juices, and we arrived 20 mins late for practice 'cause I cudnt wakeup in time!

Chethan planned a real-game like practice session, with hitting, running between bases, with rules being explained often to us by Chet, Anjali and Amit. Between the three of them, they have a good bunch of softball experience, and a lot of patience to teach us newbies.

Leena took a nasty one on the leg, Chet took a nasty spill, but apart from that, it was a good practice. Our fielding still sucks, but I think we can score a few runs. Preetu consistently hits to the right field, while the rest of us manage hits to the left and center field. Anjali, Karthik, Robert and Chethan pitched, while the rest of us tried to get comfy in our placements on the field.

A mid-week batting-cage session planned. Wednesday, or thursday? League games start next week.
