five games & les mis

craig bought tickets to les mis several months ago.  he bought six, hoping some of us would like to go.  unfortunately, our weeknights in may are often filled with baseballs.  so, caroine, craig, g-dawg, aunt joyce, and grandma & grandpa parry enjoyed the music and story of les mis.  i spread myself over five baseball games.  isaac had two.  sam had two.  jake had one.

isaac's first game was a make-up comp game in riverton.  they only had nine players.  we were playing a bad team, so we thought we could get a lead before ick had to leave.  it wasn't to be.  when it was time for us to go the score was 4-3 for the other team and isaac was about up.  so i let him hit.  he hit two batters in to give us a lead and we drove off quickly for bountiful.  i dropped him off there for his second game, which he also won.  he did tell the pitcher on the other team that he would buy him a hot dog if he struck isaac out.  it didn't go well for the pitcher.

i then drove to farmington to watch the pirates suffer their first loss.  it was a heartbreaker.  evan played first base and he was amazing.  anyone could watching could tell that he knew his stuff and in fact when the game ended the other coach said how good evan had done and how much he enjoyed watching him.  jake did a great job catching too. 

sam had a game in layton that i missed.  he won and had a couple of good hits.  then sam had a late game in bountiful, so i drove back to mueller park to catch the end.  before i got there he had the best hit of his season so he was happy.  that team won too.  so we were 4-1 on the night. 

i called isaac when i was driving between farmington and bountiful and he told me to "drive responsibility".  this was after he had driven with me from riverton to bountiful the first time and i was afraid his rec team would forfeit if he was late, so i probably drove a little bit fast.
