Trenton

My sister phoned to tell me a story concerning my nephew Trenton (age 5) and what went down at his last t-ball game. While playing second base Trent caught a ball. He tagged second base, which technically means the runner from first is out. But for safe measure, Trenton charged the kid and tagged him with the ball as well. Overjoyed, Trenton shouted at the kid “YOU’RE OUT!” and proceeded to jump up and down. “You’re outta here. I tagged you out! You’re out!!!” Ah, I’m amazed at what good sportsman like conduct he shows at such a tender age. If that weren’t enough. He did it a second time, however this time while rejoicing he yelled, “I got the brown boy out!” Brown was not the boy’s last name. Both the coach of the team and the umpire expressed their concern/indignation for such a comment. My sister-in-law was embarrassed to say the least— but what does she expect when her child is being raised by rednecks?
