Default Let me brag on my son

My 12 year old son pitched his first game tonight at the 90 ft base level. (That's were the adults play). He did really good. Went on the mound with bases loaded, one out and full count on the current batter. Three straight strikes and also struck out the next batter to get out of the jamb. Pitched one more inning and only two runners got on base before getting the third out. He is small for his age, but makes up for it with alot of tenacity.

I had a similar story about myself. Felt awsome! Good for your son!

Thanks guys. I don't have delusions of grandeur, but if he keeps it up, I hope he may have what it takes to get an education out of it.

Congrats! Awesome performance.

I have a 17 month old son and hopefully I'll be telling similar stories about him someday. You should be proud!

Big thing is not to live through their eyes. Let them have fun and be a kid for as long as they can.

That's performance under pressure. Is he throwing any breaking stuff yet?
