So Isaiah's in t-ball again this summer. This year he's playing for St. Marks. He argues and fights with me every time it's time to get dressed, however, he loves it once he gets there! 
IN THE FIELD: In this particular picture he's playing right field . . . and not particularly paying attention. However . . .
When the ball came to him, he WAS ready and he DID stop it, stand, and make the throw to first. (Didn't make the out, don't remember why. . . ) GREAT JOB ISAIAH!
AT BAT:
Isaiah has been getting good hits (they do strike out after 3 missed), but often (whisper)-he's too slow- and 
gets thrown out at first. In last night's game, he made it on base at least once, maybe twice. But the one time I'm thinking of, he ran all the way around the bases (they pretty much only move one base per batter) but for the final batter, the other team had the sense to throw home for the force and they got him out. . . Better than the runner before him though (instead of running home, he ran straight from 3rd base to the dugout, so when they threw home, he was definitely out!)

Finally, Isaiah, smiling and showing how much he loves the sport (sorry it's sideways, I turned it twice, but when I download it/ or upload it, whatever, it keeps coming up sideways!) Big smile for all his fans! :) We love you Isaiah!
Thanks for the t-ball pictures. I noticed at Michaels game the other day too. How come they get to pick fun colors for their shirts now. When we went there it was green and white and that was it. Just jealous - oh to be 5 and 7 again, there would be a LOT less to worry about that is for sure.
ReplyDeleteRunning straight from 3rd to the dugout? Reminds me of Kristy playing first (in other words, NOT the batting team) and running to second when the ball was hit. :-)
ReplyDeletecute pictures thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteIn defense of Kelly's comment - What coach in their right mind would have ME be the first baseman? I hated that position, and I never had to do it again after that. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved those pictures (especially the last one of Isaiah). Those kids seem to know all the rules already! Much more than we knew at that age! Impressive!!!
