A battle o the bats ensues when the baseball and sotball team ace o in the rstever game between their teams.
On an unusually warm and sunny day
at the sotball diamond on March 8,
posters were taped in the chain-link ence and
balloons hung around the concession standwhile the sotball girls lled the home dugout.
In the visiting dugout, however, the opposing
team was not their average opponentit
was the baseball team.
The sotball girls and baseball boys
aced o, but the change-up was not
just or un. The teams collaborated
or a good cause: to raise money
or Camp Hendon, a camp or
children with diabetes. A lot
o the money was raised
through contacting sponsors and getting
them to sponsor our game, Sadie Cohen (12)
said. And then the rest o the money was
made with ticket sales and concession sales.Some players, like Samantha Klein (11),
had personal attachments to the cause. I
have diabetes, Klein said. Ive had it or two
years, and the camp director actually wants
me to go to the camp now.
Both teams coaches collaborated to de-
sign a set o rules that combined sotball and
baseball, so players on both teams were aced
with new challenges. We didnt really know
what we were gonna do at the game, so we
didnt prepare or it or anything, Klein said.
We just showed up.
Highlights
1. UP IN THE AIRON| Aaron Pearcy(12) sees how
high he can jump as a way to keep loose between in-
nings. The un envirnoment lead to losts o down time
throughout the game. The girls played a lot harder
than I expected them to. It was probably one o the
most interesting experiences o my lie, said Pearcy.

The baseball coaches pitched baseballs to the
boys team when they were on oense, while the girls
played deense. The sotball players pitched sotballs
to their own team while on oense, and the boysplayed deense. The boys were required to bat with
their o hand to avoid hitting balls out o the park.
Many plays were just kind o routine little dinky
hits because we both couldnt hit with the pressure o
having the other team right there, Cohen said. No-
body was, like, spectacular at playing the game since
we played it a lot dierent than our normal games.
The baseball team won 14-0, but at the end o
the game, the ocus wasnt on winning or losing. The
teams undraising eorts$5,600were a bigger
source o excitement. I thought it would be a close
game, but we destroyed them, Andrew Olson (12)
said. But thats not really what it was about. We just
wanted to have a good time and raise some money
or these kids.
ON THE FLY| Connor Kriz (12)
catches a pop fy. Everything I had
ever worked on in baseball led up to
that phenominal catch, Kriz said.
USE YOUR RIST|Silhouetted by the evening
sunlight, Jake Rist (10) bats in the baseball/sotball
game. It was un to play or a good cause, Rist said.
TWINKLE TOES| On his way to home base, Harrison Scanlon (12)
shimminied around the diamond, closely avoiding Savannah Madison (12). I
had to dance my way to the plate in order to score, Scanlon said.

For our months, baseball players woke up at
4:15 a.m. to make it to 5:30 a.m. conditioning.
Working out beore the crack o dawn inspired
a motto: Sweat Happens. The team split to
add a competitive edge, receiving a plus or
completing each part o the routine aster than
the other. On the nal day, the teams tied. The
tie breaker: a Seventeenplayers ran down
the basketball court 17 times. Team two won.
The prize? Pride. And a T-shirt.
First block was my napping period because
I spent all my energy doing Burpies and
Seventeens and liting weights and running,
Samuel Coryell (11) said. But now I got sweet
muscles and Im a babe.
