    First baseball shots of the year
    Well, the weather finally cooperated enough for me to get to my first game of the spring, between Kent State University and Western Michigan University here in Kalamazoo. Here are a few for your perusal.

    Lookin good, John. I'm glad to see you're back on the baseball scene.

    It looks like I'll be able to shoot some baseball tomorrow.

    They look great! I love that you put your settings with the pics. It's very helpful to me.

    Do you have more pics of the pitcher? WOW! I'd love to see more of him.
