5-0 Swamp Bats

Well, well, well look at us! Aren't we just sittin' pretty. Can you believe it what a great start to the season we've had, huh? I had the privilege of getting to know the GM of the Sanford Mainers (Neal Olson) tonight. He was very fun, he told me last year, they were pretty even with the Swamp Bats. This year the Sanford Mainers are 3-3. Another creature I got to meet was the Keene State's Owl. He was a cool dude.


I hope you got a chance to read the Keene Sentinel today, Donna and I were featured and John Gemmel was too. I miss him so much, the article was all about Reading With Ribby and some trivia about ME! I'll be posting a link to the article so you can read it online later! Be sure to check in!

The game it's self wasn't the only great part of the evening. Tonight we played a great on-field-game, all the girls at the birthday party stood in a line and popped their balloons as fast as they could doing it however they could. It was so much fun! Madeline was the birthday girl and she was turning 6. A group of wided-eyed smiling girls gathered around me when I brought out the cake and it was the best greeting a bat could get! All the girls said that they were so excited for the party, and they couldn't wait for the on-field games. Madeline told me her favorite thing about me was, "that he's so good at baseball." Thanks Madeline! Happy Birthday!
