Season Ends

It was a dark and rainy night, and the boys played their hearts out. 4 extra innings. Not a finger nail left in the crew. But the Mustang's season came to a close tonight in a stunning defeat to John's Barber Shop. Our crowd of die heart fans couldn't believe we cold we were. This is July in Missouri. The Royals were rained out by rain and lightening... but notice that little league a few miles away played on.

It's always sad to watch the boys after this type of lose. Their whole world crumbles. Then there was the poignant actions of the coaches as they thanked each player for working so hard all season. One by one hugs and hand shakes. And then the promise of another season. There's something about leaving the ball park for the final time of the year.
