game day 2 wrap

What a day!!!! Everything could not have gone better!! Nick showed up at 10:00am and we went straight to the doctor. Although he was given clearance to play(answered prayers) we decided he still needed some recovery time. Being the future salesman that he is, he closed Mike and I on playing one inning....and the rest is history as they say!!!! Inside the dugout the boys were very relaxed, they felt like they were going to open it up in the third. John had settled in and the defense was on. Zac was my hero today! He was wrapped with ice(hit by pitch) when i asked him if he could pinch run for John if he got a hit. The Dr. said 5 more minutes on ice,wrap him and then he could go. Drew got the big hit, then John followed, Travis then took his time ,and a pitch. In went Z and one pitch later he was flying from 1st to 3rd on another Travis hit!!! The things you don't see on TV land are these boys hearts. They are bigger than Texas!! We celebrated with a quick meal and then off to watch California play. We stayed to watch the Japan game, what a game!! We are getting all the baseball you could want. From church this morning to everywhere in the ballpark tonight people are telling the boys they are pulling for them. It is awesome!! I just finished reading Olivers article in the Express online and it was emotional for me. There are many people from San Antonio here besides our families. The team is getting lots of e-mails through the Little League site and I know the support back home is HUGE! Bigger than i ever imagined ,or dreamed about...for all this support we count our blessings and are thankful...tomorrow is another day...coach lee
