Play at the plate Riley Shadel, right, runs out to tag Freya Bearly, left, who promptly tries to avoid the tag by running around him. Shadel, playing for the TCL Inc. Red Sox, was able to finally touch Bearly, of the Idaho Forest Group Orioles, though it didn’t really seem to matter to anyone. It was all part of the timeless action that is T-Ball, which might just be the purest sport out there. A look at the smiles on the kids’ faces tells the tale. —Photo by ERIC PLUMMER
