Carson is playing baseball this year!

The coach will pitch up to 5 times before
they have to hit off the tee.

According to Jeff, Carson had a great first game. He hit the ball after about 3 pitches during both of the innings. He played first base and tried to catch the balls that were thrown in his general direction. He needed a little help remembering to run the bases after each of his hits (but we worked on that at home after the game). He had a great time and is looking forward to more practices and games. He keeps telling me he likes baseball more than soccer this season because it is "new to him." Soccer starts in a week. We will see how they both go! Hopefully this will help Carson figure out which sport(s) to play next year.
