A shot of my son doing the limbo to avoid a pitch that got away from the pitcher; wish I could have shot a tad sooner and gotten the ball in flight between him and the catcher's glove.

With the Tamron zoom at 135mm, ISO 400, f11 at 1/400 , shot from just past first base along the sidelines. Image has been cropped and reduced in size, but not otherwise edited. Feel free to edit.

Great shot - it's not too hard to figure out what is going on. I see your camera loves chain link fences as much as mine. In this situation I either go down to one focus point - or have the camera focus then flip over to manual to hold it. These cameras love the high contrast of the fence. Only other nit - is saturation seems a bit high - there is a lot of red in their skin.

I wonder if it's a saturation issue or the reflection of the red clay/dirt the ballfield is composed of. I'm a little red/green colorblind, so it makes this particular problem a tough one for me to see.
