"Hey Batta-batta... SWWWING!!"
He did catch it and got this player OUT!!!! Just did not catch it on film.
"I got it!!!"
"GOT it!!"
"He's OUT of there!!"
Tonight was Jake's last coaches pitch game of the season. Next year he will be playing kids pitch. This kid LOVES and LIVES for ball. ANY kind of ball. He ALWAYS has a ball in his hand and if one is not available, he will find another object to use as a substitute. I am SO proud of #8 on the THUNDER team. He had an INCREDIBLE game on Tuesday night but, unfortunately I did not have the camera with us. He did not do too shabby of a job tonight, either.His dream is to play for the Yankees. His Poppa and Bubbles (my daddy and mom) are taking him on a trip of a lifetime. My daddy was able to score tickets behind the dugout at the second- to- last game the Yankees will play in Yankee Stadium. They are going the weekend before he turns 9 and Bella turns 2. What a way to spend your last weekend as an eight year old. He also arranged for Jake to be given a private tour of Yankee Stadium. They are going to get to sight see around New York. I am trying to tag along, but I don't think I will be successful! :( Oh well... So, one day when my son is playing for the Yankees (hey, dreams DO come true!), you all can say you knew him when....
"Jake, we are So proud of you and the young man you are becoming. You are a natural-born leader, the life of the party and have a heart for those in need. You have a way of making everyone around you feel included and you never meet a stranger. You have BIG faith, even at such a young age. God has BIG plans in store for you and I pray that He gives us the wisdom to prepare you for them. I am blessed to be called your Mommy!"
