Today the team faces the boys from Dante at Keelesdale Park in Toronto. I called Andy around 4:30 p.m. and he said it was still going on and not a mercy game so I was hoping to catch a part of it before it ended. The park is not very far from my work but the traffic was terrible but I still managed to get there during the last inning.
As I was walking over to the bleachers, I could seen Aaron in the catcher's gear. The batter hits a nice one in the outfield and runs all the way to third but this team is encouraging him to run home, even thought the outfielder is throwing in the ball. All I am thinking is - don't do it, don't do it, Aaron won't let you get away with it! Do I know my kid or what? The runner was tagged out! There was another couple of outs and the game ended because the score was 8-2, so Johnson didn't have to bat.
Andy and Ariana both couldn't wait to tell me how well he was doing behind the plate and mentioned a throw he made to second in time to get the out. Great, he's not pitching today because he was told not too but he is still straining his arm! He'll definitely be sore for tonight's game!!!
