BASEBALL LINGO

Ever since mama could remember, her dad (Mimi's other grandpa), brother and I have always loved watching the LA Dodgers and Anaheim Angels play. Every Sunday was spent listening to Vin Scully giving the play by play. Now that we live up here in the northwest mama has a soft spot for the Mariners. I think that some of the baseball has rubbed off on Mimi. We have been working on paying attention and following directions that of Mimi's swim and gymnastic coach. Out of the blue yesterday Mimi says "Mama, if I make a mistake one more time I will be 0 for 2, then there is 3 strikes and you're out! (using the hitch hiker thumb)"
