Let the games BEGIN!!!



Well, baseball started Saturday! We spent all morning at the fields taking pictures, opening ceremonies, and then Rudy's first game!! I love this time of year even though it is crazy and gas prices are so high!!

I have to admit...I am a little nervous. Last year Rudy was playing T-ball. We did sign him up for T-ball again because of his age, but because of his size we let him try out for the Junior Minor Teams. Well, he was drafted!!! My little man is now in the big leagues (so to say)!! He is the same size as most of the little guys on his team but he is not on the same playing level as they are. SCAREY!!!



During his scrimmage the other day the coach put him on the pitchers mound. Hey...don't you know that is a dangerous place to play...how can you put my little man there...he is going to get hurt...what was that coach thinking....whew...he did good and no line drives coming at his face!!! woohoo




So the season started Saturday. Rudy played left field. He did good. Stopped one and one got bye...but all in all he did great. He got to bat 3 times... 1st time...struck out 2nd time....struck out 3rd time...he got a hit
GO RUDY!! Mommy got so excited...now it wasn't some spectacular drive...but to me I was the proudest mommy there!! So he made it to first base...then second base...he was so excited and seemed to be having a great time. And our team did win the opening game...Go RIVERCATS!!
