By the time the town baseball playoffs roll around it is the dog days of summer! It is hot, hot, hot. It doesn't stop these Arizona boys from playing ball though.
Dog days, indeed!
Quinton plays on the oldest group of boys, the 13 to 16 year olds. He has been playing town baseball since the young age of 5. Despite the heat and humidity, he really loves playing town baseball. Not sure how much his fan club loves to sit and sweat while watching him play but it is an integral part of summer. This year Quinton played 1st base and short stop. He also was third up in the batting order. His team played very well all season but then fell apart in the championship game. They still came out with second place though and a trophy!

Nona kindly brought donuts for Quinton's fan club.
Declan loves the filled donuts!

What a slugger!
I think he may be choked up here or not?

They don't even look hot and sweaty maybe the dog days of summer are yet to come?
Gulp, can it get any hotter?
