There may have been frost on the field at first light, but with the sun comes fifty-plus young men darting too and fro, swinging metal clubs and picking seeds out of the air with well-oiled animal hide mitts. Even from a distance, the crisp winter air carries the distinctive ping of aluminum bats slammed against leather-wrapped corked, signaling the pending arrival of spring and with it, baseball season.
After making the playoffs last season, Coach Kittle and his fresh-faced kettle of Seahawks are ready to take flight when they get the non-conference season underway against the West Hills Coalinga Falcons on January 24 at the Hawks Nest in Aptos.
Cabrillo Baseball is set to play seven games before February 10, the date the New York Mets and San Diego Padres require their pitchers and catchers to report to their spring assignments.
