Little League baseball this year.Do to him leaving for the
entire summer, it was hard to find a league that started
early enough for him to get some good ball time in.
This is him # 11 warming up his arm with his buddy.
For there first game that was at the end of April.
Coach was rotating them all over to see who would fit well in what position.
Our 9 year old likes to play first base. This game he had to try out being a catcher. I know... he looks so darn cute in all the safety gear (OK, that is Mom commet for sure)For never playing this position before, he did great! He may be just a little small for the safety gear to fit quite right. Who knows... I have a funny feeling he will be back at first base sooner then he thinks.
The first at bat for our 9 year old was exciting (at least for me).He hit the second pitch. Nailed it to second base and was out at first. Now just for the record I am that Mom that was YELLING HUSSEL... DIG DIG DIG.... FASTER FASTER FASTER!
It was a good play.
We lost 13 to 8.
On the ride home I told my 9 year old that he did a great job. I also gave him a few pointers of my own. He quietly listened, then responded with... I could do allot better if you would just be a little more quite. Boy oh boy my son has allot to learn.
