Your Saturday morning

Four diamonds. Eight teams. One community.

Pull into the gravel lot, follow the sound of aluminum bats pinging, and find your kid warming up in the bullpen. This is what Saturdays are for.

From past seasons

Moments from the Diamond.

Young Little Leather fielder scooping up a grounder on the infield dirt

The moment he fielded his first grounder cleanly — hands together, chest proud — I ugly-cried in the bleachers. Worth every 6 a.m. drive.

Coach Ellis got down on one knee and looked Jordan in the eye after a tough strikeout. Told him to shake it off and get back in the box. That's the whole lesson right there.

T-Ball players in blue jerseys celebrating together on the grass

My granddaughter played T-Ball for the first time this spring. I drove two hours both ways, every Saturday. I would do it a hundred times over.
