FUNGO FOLLIES
Well, the troops hit the field today.
And it's a good thing tomorrow's another day.
We got a lot done today playing simulated baseball, which we like to call "Fungo Baseball."
We put two squads together, have pitchers throw to the catchers and the coaches hit the ball to all parts of the field to simulate all types of defensive situations. The offensive players get to practice all kinds of baserunning scenarios.
Don't know if it was first day jitters (first real day on the diamond since we started on March 4th), but we were not as sharp as we'd like to be.
Two hours + of Fungo Baseball - and we did make some strides. But, we have a long way to go.
We will open up our scrimmage season this Wednesday when we host Ocean Township - this game has been rescheduled due to a poor weather forecast for Thursday.
