The Baseball Incident - Shhhh (whisper, don't say anything)

in #crash7 years ago

Living in the city, finally finding a baseball and glove.

Zerocrash

That is something that I really wanted over the last twelve or thirteen years. I grew up in America, the country. Baseball is what we did. I knew nothing of soccer (futbol) until I got to South America. I had only experienced the big 3 and hockey.

My kids always asked about baseball and what it was like. I explained that you need the glove because the ball is very hard, ie' "wanna play hard ball?" hard. So today we were out to get some shoes for my oldest and we found the mitts and a ball. Of course, it's night time a couple blocks from the house of the president (the Pink House) and there was a recess with concrete walls where they could try out their new mitts. or that is what I thought

Ooops! That was the glass case where they keep the fire hose - Oh no.

But, this is actually a regular occurrence when growing up in my country . It doesn't make it right. I didn't see anything but what I thought was a metal access panel. But then again, I am pretty poor sighted.

This was not meant to happen! But it did.

now we can laugh about it and move on?

Sort:  

That happened to me when I was a kid, my brother and I just ran until we could not run anymore. That was our instinct. It looks like these kids don't know that they did anything that would draw attention. It looks planned.

The mitts are new and you can hardly close them. The boys have never played catch in their lives.

Afterwards, the security guards came out, saw all the shopping bags from the sporting goods store, and they said, "It's okay, just go. No problem." My sons were a bit embarrassed because they have never had to deal with any property damage before. I am glad I was there.

Next time, we play at the park.

Wow! A very wonderful to enjoy. You write with an incredible ability @sponge-bob I follow you now because do not want to miss the next story :) Regards!

hahahaha

I bet 200$ usd that he couldn't hit that if he wanted.

that what happens while playing i had many incidents like these

jajaj Interesante y Divertido, Bueno esas cosas pasan para aprender,, mi primera vez con guantes, sin saber como usarlos , deje un dedo afuera, y cuando me lanzan la pelota, me fracture un dedo jajaja, de hay no e agarrado un guante. gracias por compartir

Those boys look new at throwing. Someone should have told them it's a hardball. Just the sound of the word tells you it will break glass.

What a bad luck ... I'm relieved about that situation has not become a problem.

A new day, a new lesson...

Regards

We have not seen anything! As a child I broke many things in my house with my brothers, both because we played or because we fought.. We played soccer inside the house as if it were a stadium.. Ooops!

Our mother comes on the way to scold us..

the aaccidentes happen dear friend @ sponge-bob, there is no need to worry, if my mother had worried about all the windows that we have broken with the ball, I would not have lived long.
I wish you a prosperous week

Vivir en la ciudad tiene esos riesgos, Excelente tiro!

Jajajajajajajaaaaaaaa vatman no pudo capturar la pelota! Jajajajajajajaaaaaaaa. Excelente momento el que capturaste.

wow great meshup.
Baseball is a great play.
You are looking so cool.

Este juego me recuerda a cuando yo era mas chica tenía aproximadamente 10 años y íbamos a la colonia de vacaciones con mi hermano y siempre jugábamos al baseball, nunca me voy a olvidar el día que la pelota me dio en mi cara como dolió 😖
Me gusta mucho ese juego.

the best moments that remain in the memory of the children, when they play with their parents

Ruuun Sponge-Bob, run!!!! Haha it looks so fun, here in Ciudad del Este- Paraguay you can find gloves and baseballs, I have one ball I took from a student during recess because as you said it is very hard, I forgot to give it back to him.
What's the difference between baseball and softball?

The difference is size and damage! A softball has two sizes. One the size of a large grapefruit and the other is the size of a small cantalope. They are made of leather and, of course, soft. You can expect us to be playing all next weekend if it is not cold out.

Desde chico, en la colonia de vacaciones solía jugar al softbol (Me apasionaba), Tengo amigos dominicanos que juegan actualmente cerca de Ezeiza, tengo entendido que la reglamentación varía entre los juegos.

The difference also falls on the way of throwing, as I understand softball is thrown from below with an upward tilt, while in baseball it is the opposite, it could be thrown from top to bottom

great! Looking for gloves in the great Bs Ace for baseball and finding firemen. The truth as well as football is unknown in the US baseball is here. Valuable Post that can help us understand a little of this game almost unknown here. If you can, we wait for another one. Excellent thanks

I am from Venezuela and we love baseball, when my children were small my father taught them how to throw and one day they broke a very beautiful showcase that my mother had with many ornaments, we must be careful to avoid accidents, but almost always happens.

You have commented on my posts before. I remember you. i just took a look at your post and responded accordingly. A broken showcase is bad! This glass that they broke actually had a sign saying "break glass in case of fire." Not sooo terrible. Thank you for sharing .

Muy bueno y divertido, que maravilloso que pueda compartir estos momentos con sus hijos, seguro siempre lo recordaran

As a child I played baseball with my friends and more than once we broke a window, it is part of the emotion ha ha ha.

It's in movies all over the place.

Hola, la verdad que es un gran deporte, muy tradicional en eeuu, el mismo es solamente para exigente en lo que deporte se refiere, me agrado tu post, muy instructivo, te dejo mi voto.

Loool ! I love that sort of action with kids, good laugh

My son has been laughing since I posted it. The actual video was several minutes but when I sent it to their mom, it gave me the option to cut the end part only and send. Already clipped, I just popped it on my ailing yootoob chan. Done. Steemit gets all my attention on line. I really can't tolerate ad-sites at all since joining here.

It is very respectable.

That happens friend in baseball are accidents that can happen when I was a kid in practice one day I went to catch a ball and meti was the finger blood and fracture was what I got then I did not happen again saludosinteresante post friend

Great! İt is wonderful @sponge-bob

how it must have feel to be in that situation damn

well we can't stop that has to happen it happen :)

Hahaha! Pity that happened.
Courage, teach them sports that motivates them to strive to be better and achieve their dreams.
You can see the enthusiasm, and throw with strength.
That gives good indication.
I encourage friend @sponge-bob.

ohhh hooo mistakes do happen that's how we learn and roll

I like your post

hahaha ... the glass breaks. fun his games @sponge-bob

I'm not gonna say nothing I swear shhh
