LET'S PLAY BALL

Chance played T-ball for the summer season and they were sponsored by the Bee's this year.  He received 2 tickets to a game and for a special bonus they had a baseball clinic Tuesday at the Bee's Ballpark.  4 of the Bee's players were there to spend time with the kids.  They got to have a tour of the locker room and fitness room and then they learned to pitch, catch grounders, and some batting techniques.  At the end of the day the players gave the kids a baseball and water bottle that they autographed.  Chance and I had a great time below are some pictures of are day.

The players use these backpacks to hold their sun flower seeds and gum etc.

Chance has quite a follow through in his pitching

Chance was the lucky one to get the Bee's player as a partner to practice with

It was hot and humid that morning but he was still smiling afterwards, always a good sign.
