On Tuesday nights at Hermistonâs Field of Dreams, a very unusual softball game takes shape.
Both teams wear the same green T-shirts, emblazoned with the words âDream Team.â There are half a dozen shortstops, but zero outs. The game is only two innings long.
The weekly games are part of an annual tradition that takes place each spring when special needs athletes ages 6 and to young adult play together, helped along by members of local Little League teams. On Tuesday, May 4, the Devin Oil Marlins softball team and the Hermiston Generating Cardinals baseball team were taking their turn.
âMy favorite part is at the end of each game, when they ask, âWhen do we get to play again?ââ Coach Tasha Bleyenberg said.
