Lincoln at the Bat

Thursday, May 7, 2009

This was Lincoln's first season of baseball. He was drafted by coach-pitched "Bats" of the Red Mountain Little League and had a great time. Lincoln was able to fulfill his life-long dream of playing left field just like his favorite player, Alfonso Soriano. At a Cubs/DBacks game the other night Lincoln said to me, "Hey dad, maybe someday people will come and watch me play just like I come to watch Soriano." Lincoln, my retirement is counting on it. The Bats last game was yesterday and Lincoln went 2 for 3 and made 2 outs from second base. All the boys had a great seasons and really learned a lot about baseball while having a ton of fun. Can't wait for next season.
