Not Batted Yet!

As a pastor was driving home from work one day,
he stopped to watch a local Little League baseball game
that was being played in a park near his home.

As he sat down behind the bench on the first-baseline,
he asked one of the boys what the score was.

"We're behind 14 to nothing," he answered with a smile.

"Really," he said. "I have to say you don't look very discouraged."

Discouraged?" the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face.

 "Why should we be discouraged? We haven't been up to bat yet."
