After playing basketball this year, Kyler was excited to play baseball. We had to decide if he should play T-ball or coach pitch (which is actually machine pitch). We thought he would get really bored playing t-ball since he could hit 8 out of 10 balls Kenney would pitch to him overhanded. We were happy when the first game came and hit the ball both times he got to bat. However, as the season went on, he got into a rut and was unable to hit the ball. Kenney tried several times before any games began to set up practices for the kids to hit off the machine but it rained EVERY time!! Then once the games started he knew his kids needed to practice hitting but again all his practices were cancelled due to weather. Before his last game, we went out as a family to practice hitting. Thankfully, he was able to get two hits in the last game (not quite as good as the first game, but he got on base)!! After the game was over, Kyler didn't care about hitting the ball because he was too upset that no one brought snacks to the game! We see where his priorities were the whole season!!
Daddy pitching. I can't remember if he hit this one or not.
A perk to having your dad coach the team is that you get to pick your jersey first! #1
I think he preferred to look for us watching him play rather than actually playing!
Getting ready for the hit!
When the game gets too slow he would often play with his hat.
Time to Hit!!
He looks so little
I think he was just pretending to throw the ball!
Watching big brother and wishing he was part of the team.
Happy to be outside
If he can't be out there playing with Kyler, he'll just follow Damon and climb the fence!
Kyler's best hit of the season I got on film, but the camera was focused on the fence rather than the field, so it is super blurry. However, I did get one hit!
