That’s right, it’s T-Ball time! This is my first year at bat, and so far, I have been loving it! I’m playing on Team Red, as you can tell the photo just to the right.
T-Ball is a new experience for me. First, it’s a team sport, so I’m trying to learn that I can’t run after every ball. It also requires a lot more hand-eye cordination than I think I have. I’m still not used to handlilng the ball glove, but I am working on it every day to hopefully get better. Throwing a ball is also a pretty new experience for me. I’ve never worried about really where I threw something in the past, but now, I have to make it a point to aim it towards a specific person, which can get confusing when there are a bunch of other kids all fighting over the ball.
Mom and Dad were also pretty excited, as they took me down and got me a set of bases to put out in the yard, so I could practice at home. I already had a tee that I have been using for the past year, but now, I get to hit and run the bases!
I’ve played second base, outfielder, and first base so far. I will update photos in the slide show when I get the chance to play pitcher and catcher. The slideshow below are photos from my first game. I was pretty excited, as I was able to get a person out in my first game.
I’ll be taking more photos, and later in the season, Dad said he’d even be taking some video footage. Well, I’d type more, but it’s time to head outdoors and practice some more!
