She's number 1

So, Sammy has been playing softball this year. She has Become pretty good, and really enjoys it.. ( she invites everybody, and I mean even random strangers to come to her games) first game of the season, she struck out ecg time at bat. She would hang her headand walk back to the dugout. I felt bad, next game grandpa and grandma were there and she hit a home run! Everybody was telling her to stop on the bases, but she just kept running, and they couldn't catch her...only home run in the entire league all year. I started working with her on her batting. The next game she hit every time up! Her coach said to me that she has something you can't teach, I said what is that, he said she swings the bat fast and hard. She does, another parent told me she swings like she is angry, she does. I think she only struck out once in the next 15 or so at bats, she hits the ball very hard. She has been playing 3rd base, because she can throw so hard. Its been a lot of fun to go to her games. So at the end of the season they had a little single elimination playoff to determine a champion. Sammy team was dead last in the standings, Sammy hit most of her balls all the way to the grass, and in 9 year old girls softball, that is a mile, she was crushing them! They won that game and moved on. They won the next game and moved to the championship game and they won that! The games in a row! Sammy hit everytime up and they were crushed out of the infield.  Her teamwon the championship! They didn't give Ann award for this but all the parents thought she was the most valuable player! Its been great for her confidence.
