Baseball Season is Here!!!!


Playing catch to warm up. Nice form Lefty. Ayden is one of the youngest on his team. There is only one kid smaller than him. The boy bending over on the right of the picture is twice Ayden's size. He is playing in the 6-8 year old machine pitch league. He didn't want to play 5-6 year old tee ball. He wanted the machine to pitch to him. Playing against the older kids should challenge him a bit. He seems to be holding his own so far.

Practicing his ground balls.

Ayden getting ready for the machine to pitch him the ball. The coach went around to each kid and asked them what position they play and Ayden told his coach,"batter." That a way boy!!!

Hitting the ball. He actually hit the ball during this picture. He has some of the better hand-eye coordination of all the players on the team.

Good follow through.
