T-ball is made up of predominantly four and five year olds, and some six-year-old beginners. To put that in perspective, it is essentially a field of preschoolers and kindergartners, given bats, balls, mitts and uniforms that look more like cozy pajamas dropping down past their knees.
On Saturday, for their first game of the season, the Mudcats faced off against the Sharks in the 1:30 p.m. game at the West Tisbury School.
