I love a good baseball game, and we're definitely in the thick of the season that gives me opportunities to take in more than a few of them.

But honestly, although I do like the game-time action, watching the boys take care of the field following the final out is one of my favorite parts of the whole experience. (And that's Isaac there pouring water on the mound for Alex.) 

Maybe that's a little bit strange, but there's something wonderful about seeing a bunch of young people invest physical effort and energy into keeping their field in good shape. 

It's a blessing to watch them as they work toward becoming responsible adults.
