Baseball 2013

Val does not need to remind me but it's a good thing she does, that I am the luckiest Dad in the world to have a son that loves baseball as much as me! Add free season M's tickets and I think that would make me the luckiest but I admit I'm only a tiny smidgen below that ;-)

This year I coached Ty's machine pitch Rookies little league team, the Rockies. I had so many great moms and dads helping out every practice and game and considered it a great honor to have a really FANTASTIC group of boys on the team. 

What a pleasure it was just to be able to share the game I love with these boys and watch Ty as he develops skills to compare with his live for the game. I had to go buy a pitching screen this year because it is no longer safe to pitch to Ty without protection!

After the season he yard fall ball as an 8 year old with mostly 10 and 11 year olds and I was SO PROUD of him because the competition was TOUGH. He is going to LOVE farm next year and his summer select team that will only be 9 year olds playing other 9 year olds.

My favorite father/son photo ever!

Just a great looking ball player!

Perfect hitting form.

A great day at the ballpark with my Dad, the Quiggle and Allen kids!

Ty's pitching debut this fall.

Did I mention I'm a pretty lucky Dad? ;-)
