Owen’s fall little league season was still chuggin’ along. We are practicing 2-3 days a week and playing 1-2 days a week. Its been keeping us busy. The evenings were usually beautiful but those afternoon games were brutal. Yes its “fall” in all of America…but fall in SoCal means…its JUST as hot as summer!!
Watching Owen develop this season has been pretty cool. He’s been kinda placed as the “starting” catcher. He went from not know what to do…to setting himself up correctly, trying to throwing base-runners out and being a good little all-around catcher.
With it being kid-pitch the game is so much slower. Makes watching kinda boring especially in a 2 hour game Owen could potentially only get up to bat 1 time! He’s got some learning to do at bat…but its improving…
He’s starting to “get it”…when he strikes out he’s pissed (and sometimes cries)…when he gets a base hit I can see his little heart pumping outta his chest with excitement. But I still am not sure if we have found “his thing”. He doesn’t LOVE baseball…but is satisfied doing it for now. He’s not upset when he doesn’t have practice, but doesn’t complain about going either. So eh…we’ll see.
We still have a month left of season…we’ll see how this progresses.
