Tball Wrap up

So, TBall is officially over for us. We still have closing ceremonies, but no games or practices. I was looking though my pictures and I have about 100. Don't worry, I didn't insert them all. That's just craziness!


Part of TBall is learning the game and experiencing different positions. There are rules to where you play kids and teams aren't supposed to play kids in the same spot game after game. Let me just say, Tball is just as competitive as older baseball though.


Hollister was able to try out each position and he did get better each game. Not always better at baseball, but better at something. In the outfield he dances or twirls around. If he is near dirt, he draws pictures. He did get to play pitcher once and he loved it. That is where the action is in TBall. His best game, the last game, he was at 3rd base. He stopped 4 balls in all. He didn't get an out, but stopping a ball is a hard skill to master.


Ready at pitcherFielding the ball at pitcher (using his hand)First BaseI know this picture is blurry, but you can see that he is actually running after the ball. Fielding the ball with his glove... (not the way to do it) 2nd base
3rd base 3rd base... no, not ready...
Outfield, yes those are his fingers in his mouth! Batting!


Hollister is a switch hitter. For you non baseball people, that means he can hit the ball both left and right handed. He's pretty good at both, better at left.

Hamilton does well at the games and practices, but he does get tired and apparently he decided during one of the games that he was ready for a nap right then and there.
