Ryan is playing baseball. He is very excited about the competitive nature of the Cal Ripkin league that he has joined. He has proudly been telling anyone who will listen, that he tried out and that he was chosen, by the coaches, for his speed. He is also excited by the end of year tournament that decides a league champion.
The first few games were cold....really cold. Yesterday's game start-time was 9am and it was below freezing when the first pitch was thrown. He is having fun learning a new game and its nuances -- you know, important stuff like how to spit sunflower seeds and stay warm in the dugout.
As you can tell, he runs the bases well. He has played primarily 3B and CF. His first game, he made a great force out play off a grounder.
Baseball will become more fun as the weather turns and his parents don't have to bundle quite so much to stay warm at the games.
