So this maybe a little over due, but as my favorite saying goes, "Better late then never!" Brock's t-ball season finally started last week. His schedule is a little weird for me with having not only weekend games but also one game during the week. I guess this league does things a tad different but we are adjusting. The team name is obviously the Mets, and I love the orange shirts the kids wear, I can spot his team a mile away with how bright they are.
Any way his 1st game ended up being on a Tuesday but luckily James was able to go into work a few hours late so he could watch since he now works the swing shift. We were also so excited to see our fans come out aka Uncle Scott, Aunt Sarah, Kaylee, Nay-nay, Papa, Great Nana (Shar) and Nana (Laurie). Brock's face just lit up when he saw everyone cheering him on.
There were only 2 innings played and the 1st inning Brock played some where in the outfield and didn't get any ball time, but the 2nd inning he was catcher and was able to really get into the game. It's so funny to watch because a lot of these kids have a very short attention span so usually if the ball wasn't coming to them the other players were all fooling around. Now mind you Brock is the youngest player so once the other team would hit, he would usually start looking up towards the sky, and kicking up dirt, or something and wouldn't even realize the ball was being thrown towards home plate until the very last minute, but the few times he did actively pay attention he made some awesome plays! Now the batting is the best part of the game. For anyone who has watched Brock play before, you know how great he is. He really has a powerful swing for being so small. He hit the ball hard and made it to all his bases and the second time he hit the ball made it to the grass area. I do believe I am taking after my mother in being the loudest cheerer in the stands. LOL
It was great to watch and one of the cutest moments were both Alyvia and Kaylee cheering Brock on through the fence. Those two just absolutely idolize him. Thank you to everyone who came out to support Brock and we can't wait for the rest of the season!
