Kind of a shame we don't have the amateur leagues we once had. Some of you might remember when every kid in the neighborhood played baseball all summer. We certainly did. I lived right beside the school field, but most of the organized leagues played down the road at the city park, but would occasionally play on the school field.
The kids by the school fields played almost exclusively on the school field and we'd be out there all day every day. Whenever the organized leagues wanted to use the school field they would have to beat us and never got even close.
They'd come along with their nice clean uniforms and we'd be out there in jeans and tshirts and beat them 70-2 or something like that..
Sometimes it would get to the point where we got bored waiting to bat so we'd strike out on purpose just to strike them all out on purpose.. We really did have the best players in the area and my mom as our coach when we played the organized leagues.
They tried to boot us off the field one day until my mom came out to the field and told some coach that the only reason there was even a baseball field at all was because we cut the grass with her lawn mower and before we were going to leave they would have to beat us. Those big old fat guys weren't about to win that argument against my mom.. lol She was good friends with the school principal and he backed us up every time.
Fun times..
