The Shinnston Little League season kicked off this morning with the official Opening Ceremony, held at the Little League field in town.

Players and teams were introduced, followed by an invocation, presentation of colors, and the national anthem.

Ryan’s team, the Pro Care Pirates, has a game tonight at 7:45pm.

I’ll be back with more pictures tonight after the game.

(Updated: 7:36pm) Well, tonight’s game has been postponed due to rain. We’ll try again on Tuesday.

Jason,
Just an update on Levi Maxwell. He would have loved to be at opening day for Little League, but he’s playing with the Kannapolis Intimidators in Kannapolis, North Carolina. It’s near Charlotte. They will be playing in Charleston, WV on June 9-11. The website is intimidatorsbaseball.com. Check it out sometime. He’s doing great! His ERA is 0.49 right now. Woo-hoo!

Alice,

Thanks for the update! That’s great news about Levi. I was actually just wondering about him the other day. I will definitely check out the website. I’ve heard of the Intimidators before. I’ve been down to Charlotte for a few NASCAR races and know how the Intimidators got their name! Nice to hear from you!
