LITTLE LEAGUE News:

With the Los Alamos County Little League season in full swing, the Tee Ball teams of the Rangers in blue and Marlins in black met Thursday at the North Mesa Tee ball field for an event filled game.

The rules for Tee ball are a bit different than regular baseball. For starters, there is no pitcher on a mound but instead the ball is placed on a tee and batters hit the ball from there.

Each player will take their turn at bat until all players on that team have batted. Then the inning is over and the other team comes to bat. Each batter may only progress one base at a time to keep the game moving.

There is no score for the game and when all of the innings are played, everyone is a winner.
