Today was opening day for Little League! Of course, it goes without saying that baseball season is my favorite season of the whole year! We were at the fields bright and early--7 a.m. where we participated in Opening Ceremonies, followed by each of the boy's games. I only got a few photos before my camera batteries died, but hopefully a few more will trickle in as friends send me shots they got. Tate's game was first, and he did great! It's his first season of coach pitch. Coach Scott (Peloquin) and Coach Kimball (Richins) were so good with the boys, helping them learn the game and cheering them on. Tate hit the ball each time he got up to bat, and even had fun being "catcher" during one inning.
Treyson's game was next. He is in Rookie league this year, which consists of 4 innings of machine pitch followed by two innings of the kids actually pitching. Coach Willy (Nikolaus), Coach Chad (Hester), and Coach Kevin (yes...you guessed it...LEWIS) coached a great game, but they ended up losing by 1 point!! Treyson did great and made a couple of great plays in the field! He hit really well, too!
Tanner and Ty's games started within a half hour of each other, so I spent my time walking back and forth between the two. Ty is on the D-Backs with Coach Vern (Shipman), and Tanner is playing Junior's for Coach (Alastair) Ray. Ty played awesome and had a couple of great hits including a really hard hit double. He pitched two innings, and struck out three batters. Tanner's team got killed, but he had an impressive triple that went into the gap between the center and right fielders.It was a fun day, but I have to remember to lather on the sunscreen next week. I'm fried!!
