Hit a pop up/foul ball here!
Andrew is our only one playing baseball this year. Joshua never really has played as it is a difficult sport for him (too much standing around) and Triston does not want to play anymore. So Andrew it is. Things stepped up this year a notch, all the kids had to tryout and the coaches were part of a 'draft' pick. Andrew was the 2nd draft choice out of all 70 or so kids that tried out. He is on a team that has definately struggled with a record so far of 9 losses and only 1 win, but he has enjoyed learning and growing and getting better. He started off just pitching and catching. He then did pitching, left field and first base. He likes left field and pitching the best. He actually has made some great plays from left field. One game he got a guy out with his backup catch from the third baseman and his throw to home plate. Has been a very fun year to watch for sure. We are proud of him. He was asked to try out for the All Star team, which would travel to surrounding towns and play other All Star teams, so we hope he makes that. (Troy made all 4 years of All Stars as a kid here in Lodi!!!!) Andrew would love to follow that legacy! We'll let you know.
