Play Ball!

Honestly Robert thinks that should be the last words of the National Anthem! Yep, it's that time of year again. Robert is the only one playing this year. But RJ has stepped up to be an announcer for his games as well as help out the team mom when she needs him.

Robert's team is going to be interesting this year. We have one 12 year old, one 11 year old, four 10 year olds, and six 9 year olds. They looked pretty rough in their first practice game in March. But at last week's practice game they looked really tight! As first baseman, Robert is stepping up as the coach on field. He let's everyone know what the count is and when to move back or forward. He's also the one who starts up the "batter" chant. He's the loudest one out there, imagine that!

Opening day ceremonies is April 18th at 9am at Southside (Highland Park). Robert is really excited this year because Kokomo Glass (his team) drew to have the opening game of the season. So as soon as the ceremonies are over, he'll be heading out with his team to warm up.

Here's a listing of his games. All games will be played at Southside. Their colors are royal blue jerseys with yellow letters and gray pants. Their sock color alternates depending on whether they are home or away that day.
