| Paul lobs in a lazy one while Anthony watches from the infield, manboobs at the ready. |
| Ian lets one go by.. |
| Deep foul ball knocked off of Paul. Possibly one of Rich's many "foul ball homeruns". |
| Dan prepares for the pitch.... (see next) |
| ... but cannot make contact. |
| Rich (pitching) and Anthony wait expectedly for the ball to come flying back at them. (Note: though it appears that Anthony is about to get nailed in the head with the ball, that object is in the background (see other photos to verify)). |
| A trail of would be spectators clambers off to their respective vehicles. |
| Dan takes a lazy swing while Sam (blue shirt) and Anthony's youngest look on. |
| Spectators repair to the picnic benches for refreshments. |
| Dan & Sam pose for the camera. |
| Paul takes a moment to be the centerpiece of a childrens' photo. |
| Dan waits patiently in the outfield for some action. |
| Rich pays attention to the camera... meanwhile the pitch has been made - BUT it's from Anthony's older boy (Anthony is the pitcher in this scene). Will Ian swing? |
| Anthony LOBS one skyward toward Ian... in the background Paul & gang cross the field to watch the action. |
| Ian whiffs one as Paul looks on admonishingly. |
| Anthony pitches while his boy scratches his head, wondering how anyone could possibly hit off of his father. |
| Paul waits for the heat. |
| Paul sits down for some post game refreshment with his personal fan club. |
| Paul polishes off an ice cream at the end of a hard day of speedball. |
| Paul polishes off an ice cream at the end of a hard day of speedball. (continued) |
| Anthony practices with a pitcher of Paul's caliber. |
| Day3 -- Saturday July 5th 10:30am |
| Dan winds up for a pitch to Ian. |
| Ian is at bat in the background while Anthony continues practicing in the foreground. |
| It's a nice overcast day for speedball fans. |
| Day 1 -- Saturday April 19th 12:15pm |
| Ian watches Dan's pitch zoom by while Gerald (in sweats) practices in the background. |
| Anthony continues his practice session with the next generation of Speedballer. |
| Dan's pitch moves so fast that the ball has broken the time-space barrier and has projected itself into the future. Gerald looks on in horror as the impending impact could shatter the fabric of the known universe if ONLY IAN COULD HIT IT! |
| Ian tries his luck pitching while Anthony prepares for a long time in the field. Meanwhile, Paul can't be bothered with the ball since he is holding onto young Patrick. Now, what will he do if the ball is hit to him? Run with the kid under his arm or drop him and go? |
| Anthony can't help but laugh at his team's inevitable demise while Patrick has decided that Paul's summer 'uniform' stinks and he'd rather play in the dirt than smell four months of accumulated stench from beneath Paul's armpit. |
| Dan prepares for the onslaught of pitching he is about to receive. |
| Poor little Patrick, dragged to a game he'd rather not witness, begins the clingfest that would soonafter end the day's game. |
| Joel pitches to Dan in this weak attempt at a game day. |
| Joel is in mid-swing ... what will happen next? |
| Spectators repair to the picnic benches for refreshments. |
