This is what the 2008 Olympic Softball Stadium looks like now, after only four years. It was really sad to see. They are turning it into a baseball field because we were told softball is not as popular.
This is TFS International on the infield ground of the stadium. We even took our positions and pretended we were playing there.
This is a picture of the dugout, where the construction workers have made their homes while they are working on changing this peace of history into a baseball field.
This is the inside of the dugout and example of what the construction worker's homes look like. Many of the workers travel from outside of Beijing to work in Beijing because they are so poor in their area.
Can we ever get softball back as an Olympic sport. I brought the donated softball equipment with me and have made two contacts in China that will help get it to young children that want to play.
