Danny and I just took batting practice outside using a wooden softball bat and an orange. I hit it solid, but it didn't go too far. Maybe I should take some batting tips from Jeff. Smashing fruit in the middle of the night is great fun if you have never tried it. You can also hit vegetables like onions or green peppers that have been sitting in the fridge too long. I have a great recipe for home-run salsa using tomatoes if anyone is interested.
