Mighty Johnny Takes the Field

We signed John up to play tee ball.  Thankfully, he's on a team with many of his classmates.  Game times are decent for the most part, aside from the 8 AM Sunday games.  Each team gets to bat two times and there are no outs.  In other words, everyone wins.  Some of the kids are really intense about the games.  Others just want to play in the dirt.  John is somewhere in between.  He wants to do good, but he also doesn't like standing around for two long.

After two games, I can honestly say I see improvement on the entire team.  They all know where they need to go.  They all wait their turns.  And, they all try to field the ball.  John needs to work a little on his throws, but his coach has said that he's got the fundamentals of fielding down.  He's in good position and is getting far better with his glove.

I asked him if he liked it and he said that he loves baseball because Papi loves baseball.  That boy just loves his Grandfather.  It runs in the family.
