Scout Smith (7) gets down with her bad self. (John Fisken photos)
Clay Reilly sets the target.
“Spring” … when baseball players everywhere freeze their buns off while camped out in the dugout.
Klahowya’s two-time league MVP, Amber Bumbalough, is fast on the tag, but Scout is just a hair quicker with the slide.
Wolf first-baseman Kory Score lobs the ball back to his pitcher.
Joltin’ Jae LeVine is here to whack base hits and never, ever miss a photo op.
“My base!” Scout can’t be caught by mere mortals.
Scout Smith is sneaky quick.
The Coupeville High School freshman has stolen six bases this spring, which puts her fourth on the team.
What makes that number truly pop is, unlike the three girls ahead of her on the list, she’s not a regular starter.
Smith just takes advantage of every opportunity she gets, something she demonstrated as a pinch-runner in a big win over Klahowya Monday.
Interspersed in the following photo essay, which captures action from both that softball game and Coupeville’s baseball clash with the Eagles, are three pics of Scout being Scout.
It’s an image you’ll be seeing a lot of in years to come.
