We have an old beat up baseball bat with tape on the handle that Justin has used for many years. As baseball season is quickly approaching, we decided it was time for a new bat for Justin. Walter wanted to buy Justin an expensive bat, but I wondered can an expensive bat make a difference in how a kid hits a baseball?
So off we went to a specialty baseball shop as we needed assistance with picking out the bat. After talking to the staff, we ended up buying an expensive bat. Now for the test.
At a batting cage Justin tried 9 balls with his old bat. Time after time he would miss. Then he tried 9 balls with the new bat and what do you know - he hit the ball almost every time! So I guess buying a better bat does make a difference. It's going to be a GREAT baseball season this year!

The bat looks like any old bat to me. That is interesting about the girls in the coma, I wonder if I can watch it on Daterline.com. Michelle
Here is a link to the page on the Dateline web site that has a transcipt of the show and the video -http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23849928/
