The Sharks

Ladies and Gentlemen, playing #3 for The YMCA Sharks,

Jaaaaaaaaaake Vineyard!

Jake is now playing "coach pitch" ball for the YMCA. This is his first time on a team. We think he likes it alright, though his attention span will need to broaden before we'll consider him for the Major Leagues!

The back of the jersey. Little Reidy did NOT want to be left out---at home or on the field!

He was pretty cute in his uniform!

The team receiving a pep talk from Coach Davidson before playing their first game.

The coach will pitch for a while and if the player cannot make contact, they will use the T. Jake had to use the "T" the first time at bat but the second time up to bat he hit the coaches pitch out of the park......well, not out of the park, but he hit the ball good and hard!!!

I was one proud momma!

Vineyard---running to second!

My sweetheart!

(although I am not allowed, anymore, to call him pet names. He says I embarrass him and can only talk to him like that at home)

Reid wanted out on that field sooo bad. He couldn't understand why he couldn't go stand on the plate with Jake or sit with him in the dug out.

The face of a Champion!

Probably the most exciting part for Jake. The snack at the end of the game.
The Sharks will practice and play many more times (yikes) so stay tuned for more reports!
