Jace and the Orioles

Jace has been playing machine pitch again this Spring.  He is getting really good.  His favorite position to play is catcher "because he doesn't have to do much", although he is quickly learning that the catcher is just as important as everyone else on the team, and actually has to throw his helmut off and play his base!  He cracks us up!  He is an awesome batter, only rarely striking out.  He is getting better at catching the ball when it's thrown to him, and he runs so fast - when he thinks he's going to get out otherwise.  His team is number 2 heading into the tournament, following a team of mostly 8 year olds.  We're really really proud of Jace.

I'm glad you can see Dale and Brock in the background in these batting pics

I think he's so cute all geared up as catcher

Down and Ready!

He likes to dance around a bit when nothing's going on :)

One out!

Chatting with the boys after the game

Waiting to hear about the game, and who got the "game ball"

Thinking it's probably going to be him with all that coach Skee is saying

Right as his name is being called

So proud of you Jace!
