I just saw your post…remember…’baseball is life’ (I have a hat that says this)! heehee Yes, the drafts occur every year, and birth certificates are mandated across the country, especially if they make it to ‘All Stars” at the end of the season. Yup, really…cheating happens. The white long sleeves are forbidden across the country for pitchers…white sleeves may reflect the sun and interfere with pitching. Isn’t it amazing how serious this game can be at this young age? *smile*
I have taken my son to every game of his since t-ball and I love it too! He’s been in ‘travel ball’ the last few years (now 14 yrs young)…just wait for this adventure, playing at miniature replica’s of MLB ball parks…lots of driving and expense, but if your child loves this game, it’s still ‘fun’! And, your right…the picture opportunities outdoors are fantastic!

Amen on that! We went through the whole baseball thing for years with my oldest son, now it is time to start with Max! the best quote I heard years ago when Parker was about 8 on a team was from one of the dads about a cute little boy on our team. He said” I don’t even know why he came out for baseball, it’s not like he has a future in it!” Hello! Are people out of their minds? Well, all that being said, it is a lot of fun for the little guys. And it so fun to sit out and watch the little guys. There is nothing like sitting on the bleachers and cheering and of course buying lots of junk at the snack bar. It’s a great ole pasttime! Gotta love it!

He showed up to try out in a pair of jeans??? – now nobody is going to pick him I would love to drop a big bucket of “real life” over your town. We did coach pitch last year with Rachel – so laid back, thank goodness. Poor girl has NO skills, but she had a great time.

Yes, I think it’s a little over the top. Hope they have a great season!
