The Tank’s Note: Proud Papa Chris checks in with an update for Chris, my little step-brother.
The team finished out the season strong. Chris shared time between SS, 1B, and 3B. He likes playing first, but he has a really good arm so they put him at short. I need to work with him on grounders, and throwing to first. Unfortunately at this age they don't have summer ball, but I am starting to get some of his teammates together on the weekends. He should be ready to move up next year. I have some good photos here.
Chris's team finished strong. They don't keep standings in this league, but I think they were probably 7 - 3. We've already started
practicing for next year with some of the kids. We had our first practice today. We also switched to regular hard balls (I had to go
out and get a new mitt, Chris has worn through mine). If anyone wants to come by and be a human target....er I mean a batter, Chris needs to
practice his pitching. :)
