A league of their own

The Miracle League of Richmond played its first game earlier this month on its new field at the L.C. Bird Athletic Complex. The specially-designed field accommodates wheelchairs and other devices, allowing children with physical disabilities to play baseball. Clockwise from top: Chad Lowery makes it to third base; Chase Throckmorton takes his turn at the bat; Coach Tom Manuel helps Hailey Horton hit the ball; Red Sox teammates wait in the dugout; Paul Kosko scores a run; Christian Largo, 8, waits anxiously to go to the next base.
