Lucy Softball March 2026 vs. West Valley

Lucy, with the Deer Park Stags, played two games against West Valley.  So fun to watch this team and of course Lucy.  
Oh what a day!  In the first game Lucy hit 2 doubles, a single and a home run!
A hit for Lucy!

This is the home run!  She hit the ball so hard we were pretty much speechless for a moment!
Around the bases she goes. 

The celebration.  Lucy is in the middle of all that!
I like this picture.  It looks like the ball is sitting on the fence. 


Lucy is on base again with another hit! 






The ball goes out to the outfield again! 
The ball is on the right of the picture. Boy was this fun to watch!
Nice level bat after connecting with the ball. 


Nice play.  This picture is a little blurry!
SHE IS OUT!
Here goes another one!!!!! 






We were only going to stay for one game because we had projects at home.  Mike said the projects would still be there when we get home.  We wanted to stay and watch Lucy play witht ht

Camelback Ranch Friday night at Dodger Stadium

Take my out to the ball game!  Take me out with the crowd.  Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks.  I don't care if I ever get back.  There was some truth to that song on this night. A big adventure for sure. 

This is the line, or part of it, to get into the Dodger's stadium.  It looked like it would take a long time but it didn't. They rushed everyone through security quickly. 
The right place at the right time.  Alex Vesia was on a practice field to our left as we walked to the stadium. He was just finishing his practice and was headed back to the locker room just as we were passing by.  Keri asked if it was OK to take a picture and he had no problem saying yes.  Alex Vesia and Easton.  

Keri and Mark!
It was a sold out crowd!
I love watching baseball, especially in person.  What an exciting experience and it will probably be a once in a lifetime experience.  I am thankful I was invited!
We were in the second row right behind home plate.  This was our view. NICE!
Here he is Ohtani, the super star!  The netting was in the way of the pictures as you can see. 

Othani at bat!


The Dodgers first baseman.  Freddie Freeman.  I moved so no netting was in the way. I got right up next to the netting so I could put the camera (phone) in the gaps. 
The Dodger shortstop, Mookie Betts. 
Yamamoto was the starting pitcher. 
Andy Pages. 

Miguel Rojas
Even more superstars Keri, Easton and me! 
Just chilling watching the game. 
Time to head back to the house!  What a great experience. I loved being with my family and watching my favorite sport, baseball. 

The Dodgers won as you can see.  
I am very thankful that I was invited to join the Doolittles on this trip.  It was great to have a week full of baseball but even better was the time I spent with my family.  So glad Kristin, Layne and Lucy joined us.
