This kid has been striking out all season. Wasn't discouraged though, kept asking for more practice. Today bases were loaded and he connected. Single to left field. The whole team
We were out there 2 nights in the woods. My wife was convinced the kids would be miserable without their tablets. Nope. They caught frogs, built a fort, roasted marshmallows, and a
Been coaching little league for 2 years and my 10yo finally connected for a real home run today. Not one of those weird league rules where every hit is a homer. This was an actual
