He went right out there and was ready to go
-
He ran the bases, he hit the ball,
Then the coach put him on the pitchers mound because "he looks like he knows what he's doing". Dylan gave him a few pointers and then he proceeded to grab every single ball that was hit, tag (knock down) 2 kids out on their way to first base, and throw the rest to first and when the first baseman didn't catch those balls, Grant told him " you're supposed to catch that!"
He earned the nickname Little Derrik Jeeter and someone mentioned Edward Scissorhands because he wore Dylan's batting gloves the whole time :o). The other parents just couldn't believe him, that boy of mine! I was crying because it was just so cute and funny and he was just so darn happy to FINALLY be playing baseball. The coach had snack ( baseball juice and granola bars) and Grant was in heaven! "Did we win mom?". Yes, Grant you won!
