    How many does it take?

    How many infielders does it take to get an out?

    I had went to my nephew's baseball game (7-8 year old) a couple of weeks back and of course took my camera. Took a bunch of shots just for fun, but when the coach and a couple of the parents saw some of them they asked it I would come back a shoot a game so they could have some action shots of their kids. I took ~180 shots and ended up with 113 I posted for the parents.

    This series is from yesterday's game I thought was pretty good.







    Apparently it takes more than two

    No joke. Looks like some of the MLB teams anymore ;) Good job shooting. One critique, crop them so it's tighter in on the kids, other than that it's all peachy.

    Great catch! You not the players. These youth league games are fantastic for getting these type pictures. Hope the parents appreciate have some really neat action photos.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??
