With names like Stitches, Flash, Hammer and Hollywood, these boy scare their opponents. They carry a lot of confidence on the field. When one of the players was asked if he was ready for the game, he replied, BRING IT ON!" Don't let their sweet faces fool you, these boys mean business. Some of them talk and sleep baseball 24/7.

The shoot was so much fun! I was challenged with getting 11 9/10 year old boys to smile for me. It worked when I started a sentence with "(blank ) likes being rocked to sleep by his mommy" and asked them to insert their teammate's name. Soon, they were making up their own sentences, like "(Blank) sleeps with a Pillow Pet." The boys got creative and the sentences got sillier. I saw lots of laughing and smiling for the rest of the shoot.
