Here is my second try let me know what you all think. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately we had heavy smog on Saturday so it was hard to get great shots everything seem to have a haze to it.

Not bad. Focus looks good. WB good. Like #2. Lots going on in the pic. #1 doesn't have any context of the game. This is sometimes difficult to get in baseball due to how far players are from each other.

My plan for shooting baseball is to focus on a couple of areas like hitters & pitchers and maybe plays at 1st or 2nd base. Because baseball is so unpredictable, it's difficult to follow the action like you can in soccer or american football.

Thanks for the comments Dave I have been really struggling with getting the context shots in little league it seems that the plays are almost always made before another player is on or at the base. I had one shot at a decent play at home but was too far away to get a good crop and because of distance I missed the focus and hit the backstop.

Thanks again for the comments it is a big help to hear what I need to do to get better at this.
