Pics from an All-Star team for the south side of this city. There are no sanctioned tournaments for this age group apparently, but they set up some games with some other All-Star teams and played Saturday. Thought I'd share a few - C&C always appreciated.
Went with 1000 minimum SS, as recommended from some responding to some previous pics I've shared, and I liked the results. Shooting with an R6 + EF 300mm f2.8 vI and an R6 + RF 70-200 f2.8. Aperture priority with auto ISO for most shots and the 1000 minimum SS.
Started out as a hot, hot sunny day, but ended up being rained out with a torrential downpour!
Enjoy!

#2 - power hitter #8 got a double, driving some runs home in the process, and was very excited after sliding into 2nd successfully

#4 - at this level of kid pitch there are plenty of wild pitches and, as a result, kids stealing the next base

#5 - always good to practice my timing on the shutter

#8 - the South team started out giving away 5 runs in the first inning but came back to tie it. Then, another hit by #8 put them well ahead with a triple that scored more runs. Let's just say the players and coaches were excited!

#9 - That slide into 3rd base jarred it loose and they had to work on it a bit before continuing

#10 - son, you've got to steal when I tell you to!

#11 - Then the rain started. A wild pitch, and the runner on 3rd goes.
