A day of baseball… Carson Varsity & Douglas JV

First up, Carson vs. Elko… The Elko boys got up this morning… drove across the State and almost… almost took one away from Carson today… and drove home after the game.  Carson won in the bottom of the 7th inning 12-11… not a pretty game… the photo below of Chance blowing a bubble kinda sums up the game… I’ll leave it at that.

… but first up, Casey working to make the tag…

and the photo I mentioned above… I’m not picking on Chance… he was just blowing this bubble while at bat… those are things that photographers are SUPPOSED to get… đŸ™‚

Then it was off to Douglas High for the JV game against Damonte Ranch… again, not the prettiest of games… AGAIN… bottom of the 7th inning… Douglas wins 13-12.  Here are a few picks from the game…

James pitching… for those that know James, it’s no big deal, for those that don’t know him, it’s a big deal… he’s HUGE… I believe he’s 6′ 8″… and he’s a freshman!  I’ve been photographing James for a few years… always a pleasure!  Great kid, great family, REALLY great family!  Here’s today in a Douglas uniform and a few years back in a Carson Valley Little League All Star uniform… THIS collage started what we now affectionately refer to as the “mom shot”…

… and a similar comparo with Sully… glad to see both you guys out there playing still!!  Sorry for the potentially embarrassing photos of days gone by… just proud of you fellas for sticking with it and starting your high school “careers”!
