Batting Practice with the Wizards

August 20th, 2008 | Author: Chad Gramling

Batting Practice at the CastleTonight, I was lucky enough to take part in what was the second special batting practice session at Memorial Stadium. It was hosted in appreciation for team sponsors and season ticket holders. Through my employer, a few co-workers and I took stepped up and took our hacks.

Mike NutterWhat a fun time and great way to show appreciation for your supporters. Special thanks to the Wizards staff for putting it together. An extra special thanks to GM Mike Nutter for not plunking me despite the countless times I’ve bothered him while working on Baseball in Fort Wayne (the book and the blog).

For the record, I did not hurt myself, nor did I greatly embarrass myself – I think I actually got two out of the in-field and I missed fewer than I expected.

A terrific success if I do say so myself.
