Wake Up! With Little League Softball Redeeming Itself

I’m not sure there are a lot of reasons to watch softball; It’s like baseball under water.  Which, recent studies have shown is about as much fun as cancer.  And yet this morning I saw Ashley Killebrew of the Warner Robins America rounding third and colliding with West catcher Ashton Akin.  Not only did she collide, but yes sure enough she closed lined her, like some deleted scene from Major League IV: The Girls Strike Back (no, that movie doesn’t exist….yet).  Sure both Killebrew and Akin followed up this moment by simultaneously dropping to the ground and squirming like road kill, but this is softball: unlike baseball there IS crying in softball. Bottom line, my hat is off to these two youngsters for letting their proverbial sacks drop….(slow clap)
