Tyson has been playing for Fontbonne for two years now. Well, not really. Last season was canceled because of the plague, so this is his first official year. And this weekend was the opening weekend. Yesterday's game didn't go so well, but Tyson wasn't playing. And we were having a huge day at the store so we couldn't get away for it.
He's a relief pitcher, and they don't pitch every game. People that know baseball really well know these things. I'm not putting myself in that category, but I have learned a few things over the years watching the boys play. I am smart enough to know that Shaw Park has a pretty amazing facility. It was raining the whole time we were there, but the games didn't get called. The magic of turf! And it was awful nice to have a place for him to warm up before he went in.
It was hard to watch the game, though. There weren't many fans, but the ones that were there lined the fences and we weren't too keen on getting close to anyone. The Beautiful Mrs K and I brought Remi along to get him out of the house, and he was very challenging today. And muddy. Grandma showed up, too, and she was smart enough to bring an umbrella! Not that any of that mattered, though. Tyson went in when the team was behind and struggling, and he helped them pull out the win. Awesome debut. We are very proud of him!
