At the Latah County All-Star teams potluck

You can't tell these boys just got crushed 2-15 by an all-star 9U team from Olympia! We only have one game today because another team was a no-show, and that's a bummer because these boys obviously have extra energy to burn, even in the heat. Gunnar already changed after the game, and Zane was eager to join the dogpile.
Gunnar didn't pitch well during his only 2 outings of the regular season, but a retired pitching coach from WSU helped at one practice and gave him a bunch of pointers that seem to be helping a ton. Last weekend he pitched 2 innings of 3 up, 3 down with 4 strikeouts. Today he pitched 2 innings with 3 walks and 3 hits (and a final out strikeout), but there were 5 errors in the field and they scored 9 runs in one inning. So it was a tough inning, but overall he didn't do that badly from the mound.
