Take me out to the Ball Game

The Baseball season officially started this week. This year Nathan is a Marlin playing in the A division. In this division it is coach pitch and the coach has to pitch over hand from the pitchers mound. Pretty tough for the coaches I think. It really is entertaining to watch the kids who range from age 4 to almost 7. Today was Nathan's 2nd game and the team is finally started to figure out how to play as a team. They ended up winning 8-2 and had a great time, Go Marlins! Nathan was so excited when he hit the ball his second time at bat. He froze for a moment before he started running to 1st. He has never hit the ball during a game before and I don't think he quite knew what to do. But once he got running he made it all the way to 3rd base before the ball made it to the pitcher. His next teammate hit the ball and he was able to make into home plate. He was so excited and grinning ear to ear the rest of the game.

                                   Here one of the coaches is telling him to keep running.

                                                 On his way to 2nd.

 

Made it to 3rd.

                                               Running to Home base!
