Rookie League Champions!






Taylor has been fortunate to play with the same handful of kids for the last three years.  This year was his first year in the Majors division of Rookie League.  It's what we like to call "real baseball".  Three strikes, you're out, not everyone hits and GASP, THEY KEEP SCORE!  He was on the Reds this year and had great coaches that are just full of positive energy, yet teach the kids so much!  They were undefeated and then won the single elmination tournament at the end of the season.  Even though he is only 7, this was a very proud time for him and his team and I am so happy for him.  His football and basketball teams didn't make it past the 1st round in the tournament, so this was a good change for all!  Plus, daddy would be really happy if baseball is Taylor's favorite sport :)  I think daddy got as big a kick out of all of this as the kids.  He helped assistant coach a bit this season by filling in for other coaches if they were out.  The parents, who have been together for three years now as team parents, have had a blast getting to know each and hanging out too!
