Our youngest son James and his team have had an excellent Little League season, when the games haven't been rained out. His team tore through their division undefeated, until they lost to a similarly undefeated team from a neighboring town in a riveting game with a playoff atmosphere (this other town actually had MUSIC blaring in between innings). Our favorite third baseman had a great game in the field but a rough night at the plate, culminating with a game-ending strikeout. Hey, he went down swinging. Such an ignominious ending would leave many Little Leaguers really bummed out, and to be sure James and the team were not pleased with their first loss of the season. But the mood changed quickly when I reminded him that he gets 50 cents off on ice cream at Stewart's if he goes in wearing his Little League uniform. Play ball!
