April 1 2007

Our 11am practice on the 31st got moved to the 1st; no joke. We do believe that a practice did occur on the 28th, but we are not in a position to comment on that. Perhaps someone else who is in a position will care to comment?

As for our practice on the first, there's nothing quite like playing baseball in a hailstorm. Add a strong wind so that the hail falls sideways and you've got a recipe for perfection. The infielders and outfielders were segregated for the first half hour for the usual grounders & flies drill, followed by an infield/outfield session, followed by a spirited game of american pingpong which proved to be quite the pitchers' duel. A little too many K's on both sides, but the pitchers did want to prove their worth, spring training and all. No one can take their spot on the roster for granted.

We have an exhibition game planned for Sunday the 8th against the Rockies. Come one, come all - especially the players.
