I had my first official softball game ever last night. Our team is the Sluggers.
I had a blast last night. I got to bat twice and hit the ball both times. The first time, I just kind of hit the ball off the edge of the bat. It looked like it was going to be a foul, but the catcher hit it back in, so I made it on first base. The second time I actually had a pretty decent hit. I should have not slowed down in my running to first because I just barely got thrown out.
But as I hit first base, my right foot turned horribly wrong and I wound up on the ground with a sprained ankle. I was so glad Chris was standing right there as the 1st base coach so he could help me. He had me go off to the other team's dugout to sit for a minute. A guy in the parking lot that had seen it happen ran over and gave me a bag of ice which was soooo nice! My foot hurt pretty bad last night, but this morning it seems to be much better already. I'm still very slow getting around, but I think it won't take long to heal.
Oh, and I also got to play 2nd base. So, despite the injury I loved my first softball game (minus all of the mosquitos)! It was great to hang out with friends, and I can't wait for more games!

SO sorry you sprained your ankle, but I'm glad it sounds like it won't be too bad.
I have a problem with you going to second base in front of all those people.
