Red Sox v. Yankees, the 4yo version

Today was Ryan's first TBall game. Of course, we are thrilled to be on the Red Sox but even more excited that our first game was against the Yankees.  The East Side Rookie league is set up to have 30min of practice followed by 60min of game. Each inning consists of every player hitting off the tee...everyone gets a single! Then the teams swap and take the outfield.  The player standing on the pitcher's mound wears a helmet (just in case). I think that was Ryan's favorite part of the game!

Ryan and the rest of his team had so much fun. We are looking forward to next Saturday's game vs. the Braves!
