So that you could play in the backyard without breaking windows?

Good times

Constantly. Hard yellow whiffle ball bat or old school skinny Wilson was our wheelhouse. Tennis balls were cheap.

Tennis balls and pinkies. I'm probably dating myself, but did anyone play curb ball or step ball? Great fielding workouts!

We built tennis ball cannons with three hollowed-out coke cans, duct tape, some lighter fluid, and a fire cracker.
