Bats and Hats. The helmets and the bats are lined up and ready for the umpires' pre-game inspection. Once in awhile I find an illegal bat. Usually, it's a cheap bat that a dad found thinking he was getting a deal. Almost always, it is a slow-pitch only bat, or a bat without a sanctioning sticker.

Missed the Corner. Dennis Lupo is the umpire behind the plate.
Illegal Pitch. Pitching "trenches" develop where the pitchers drag their foot on the push off. This makes it hard for high school umpires to judge whether a leap has occurred. In this photo, the pitcher is leaping for an uncalled illegal pitch.
Making it to 2nd. Down a run, this double provided some encouragement to the team. Grass Lake would eventually lose the game and end the 2017 campaign.
