"Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."- U.S. Army General George S. Patton & 1912 Olympian

Maximus's First Baseball Game "Dragons"

Saturday June 20th 10am game.
Maximus was terrific & he had so much fun!! He hit the ball 3 times (the same amount of times he was up at bat). And he scored two runs for the game. This league is 7-9 yr olds & the kids didn't have an opportunity to practice prior to the first game. The kids completed 3 full innings in 1 hr., no score was kept. Maximus played 3rd base & left field. He went after & caught two balls. He was so pumped to carry his bat/ball bag & wear his uniform. He really had a good time despite the 55 degree windy rainy morning!! Maci was a good fan yelling out, "Maximus number one!"

his ground ball hit that landed him on first base


Maximus scored this run from his hit along the 3rd base line.
