Spring Baseball - March

Carter is playing Baseball this Spring through Smyrna Little League.  He is on the Pee Wee 1 White Sox.  The games have two innings and every child bats each inning.  Each child gets 5 pitches from the pitching machine (37MPH!) and if they don't get a hit. they still run to first base.  He is playing with 5 of his buddies from school so it's been a lot of fun.
Our first game got moved around due to weather but it didn't dappen the fun.  Carter is #1 so he led off and got a hit on his first pitch!  He alo got a hit his second time up.  Not bad for his first game.
Pre-game pep talk from Coach Joe
Excited for their first game
The Opening Day Parade was rained out but the kids were just as pumped to make it up the next weekend.  It was incredibly early but the whole family had fun decorating the truck.
And the kids thought being in the back of the truck was so cool!
Dad's view from the back
As for the game, Carter had another good one getting two hits - more foul balls than legal hits but he was so excited.
His last game in March was preceded by team pictures and we had a whole car full of fun on the way to the field.  I think the boys loved that more than the actual game!
