Blake's favorite moment this season was when he caught a fly ball at second base. I will never forget his face. His eyes got so big and he was absolutely shocked! Then he snapped back into the game and made the throw to first for an attempted double play. It was great. Plus, every kid remembers his first catch of a fly ball. That is like a rite of passage!
My favorite memory was when Blake was playing catcher and he got a kid out at home. Catcher hasn't been Blake's favorite position, but he really has learned a lot there. One game the bases were loaded and the batter did somewhat of a bunt. Blake grabbed the ball and planted himself in front of the base. The runner tried to slide and Blake did not budge. He got wiped out but he also got the out. I was SO proud of him! It was amazing!
He had such a blast playing this Fall. We will be back at it again in the Spring. Now it is time for some basketball.
