Bummer



Ever wonder what it would be like to get hit in the face with a softball? Just take a look at Blaike and you'll have a good idea. Saturday he was playing in a Tournament in Delta Utah, a little town in the west desert basically in the middle of no where, when a fast moving ball hit him in the face. He said he realized it had hit him but had no idea how hard, until fellow team mates, including the guy from the other team who hit the ball, were trying to get him to sit down. The ball hit the ground and spiked up and hit his face. He will know Wednesday when he will be having surgery. They are waiting for some of the swelling to go down. I want to thank Karlee for being so great and taking such good care of him. She had to make the lonely drive back to a Ogden Hospital, after they released him to her to transport him by car. Guess we have to give Greta (the dog) some credit too, she was with them. This is just another Soft Ball injury for Blaike. Just a freak accident is how he puts it, I am sure he will be back on the team as soon as he is able.
