Well we are through the first homestand of the season and that only means one thing…the first away trip has begun. And it is a doozie, 7 days on the road at two different stadiums that are both 7+ hours away…meaning I am definitely not driving by myself to these upcoming games. So here I sit. Alone. Bummer! I’m so glad I have my sweet little fur baby Lili, if I didn’t I might go crazy. But still, I foresee a lot of TV in my immediate future!! Oh yeah, and listening to the games over the radio of course. Any-who, I’ll let you know how I end up occupying the rest of my time later (AKA – when I finally figure it out myself 
). What I REALLY want to talk about right now is baseball! Surprise, Surprise!
The Trenton Thunder are 3-3. Addison has only played in 3 out of the 6 games, but he has managed to play all 4 infield positions during those games! Mr. Versatility is his name right now, that’s for sure. Saturday he played short stop,yesterday he played third base and first base, and today he played first base and second base. Although it is a little bit stressful seeing him at different positions all the time, I actually kind of like it! It’s already exciting enough watching him make great plays at the positions that I’m used to seeing him play at. But when he goes out to play a position that he’s only had experience at a handful of times and continues to make great plays, it is just plain thrilling! He’s been doing well at the plate too, he is currently batting .300 with 4 RBIs. Another thing, today was the Thunder manager’s, Tony Franklin, 1000th career win. So it was a pretty exciting day for the team!
Saying goodbye to Addison is never easy – even when it’s for such a short time. It’s safe to say I can’t wait to get him back next week! For now I’ll have to make do with phone calls and face time.
The link below is a video from the game today. (Addison had 2 doubles and 3 RBIs!)
