Go Cubs!

All ready for his first game.


The team warms up before the game.

Up to bat.

Running into home plate.

Out in the field.

Zack is ready for the ball...as long as it is hit directly into his glove...without him having to move a muscle!

Zack batted 3 times and scored 3 runs during the first game...he's a natural! The boys really take "team sport" to heart when fielding. If a ball comes their way, they all dive for it, and end up in a pile-up for the ball. The coaches are working on their skills but generally, we think they're just happy they're all enthusiastic about the game.

As of today, there's been 3 games and 3 practices. Considering the intended direction of pitches versus the actual direction the ball ends up going in, amazingly, none of the team (coaches included) have been injured with a "fly" ball.
