Game of Adjustments

It has been a few days since I have written an update on the season.  Since my last post I have been doing pretty good.  Been having some great at bats and catching really well.  Tonight was the first night I didn't get a hit in a while but I had 1 good at bat and 2 great out of 4 plate appearances and I might a slight adjustment mid game to helped me have those two great at bats.  I noticed my first two at bats that I didn't quite feel right up at the plate.  I wasn't seeing the ball as well and I didn't have that same feel with my swing I had been feeling for over a week.  I realized after my second AB that I was slightly open with my front shoulder in my stance so I fixed that my next trip to the plate and walked.  My last at bat I got a fastball down the middle that I was right on but flew out to deep left field.  If I wasn't so much under the ball it would have gone way out.  But I was right on it, squared it up perfectly, just hit it up a little too high.  I think I also threw out 1 or 2 baserunners today along with 1 or 2 yesterday.  Yesterday I hit my 5th homer of the year too.  It was a line drive to left center and felt great, especially getting my homerun money.  I made like 180 buck off of it! It was awesome.  I don't know if I have described the homerun tradition here but after you hit one at our field you run to the backstop and people give you money!!!!  It is awesome!  I would like to hit a few more homers this season and keep raking in the cash.  We are on a pretty good run lately as a team.  We have one something like 11 of 14 I believe.  We play at home again tomorrow before going on a trip to Fort Worth.  We will be on the road for 6 games after tomorrow.  I will not have internet at Fort Worth so I won't be able to update unless I somehow find some internet.  If I do I will update while I'm there. 

Hope everyone is still having a wonderful summer!
