Swing batter, batter........PLEASE!

Seriously, have you ever seen such a cute baseball player? This was GG first year of coach pitch baseball. There are kids on this team from 1st to 3rd grade.In this agonizing sport of coach pitch, there are no strikes, no outs, and everyone bats exactly three times. Garrett happened to be the shortest on the team. He was the one that everyone was cheering for. The one who would hit a foul ball and the crowd would yell "RUN" because yes it's OK to run on a foul ball in coach pitch. The one who's batting helmet came down to his nose. Who's cleats were two sizes to big for his feet so that he had to shuffle around the bases with one hand holding up his helmet so that he could see.
The one that the base players had to tap on the shoulder and tell to run. And yes, that's my son out there on short, instigating a game of tag with all the other outfielders. Love him, love the game. Thanks for reminding me that we all started out this way. Even if his older brothers tell him otherwise..
