This kid needs one more strike to win. Unfortunately, the batter drives in two runners and the game ends in a tie. Fluke shot to see if I could get a clear shot through a chain link fence. It worked for me, but it was also my last shot on my card. I read the title for this challenge the night after I took this shot and knew it was the one to submit.

doesn't really say minimal to me.
I can also see the real ball in the pitchers hand.
Nice idea which would have scored higher from me in another challenge
good luck though
Really like this, though I'm not convinced it fits the Minimalism challenge very well. In terms of composition I think I'd have prefered if the batter's head was further to the left in the shot, just to space things out.
IMO, this would have been a great picture except for the helmet in the foreground. The colors are nice, and the expression on the pitchers face is great.
Like the shot, but maybe a half a step to the right putting the helmet between the two players might help. Where the helmet is in this shot is too distracting, my eye keeps going to the helmet.
