Game Winning Hit!

Bryson started his All-Star games last night with a double header. Poor kid started warming up at 4:30 (temperature at 95 plus humidity). Then had 2 games from 5:30-9. Being 38 weeks pregnant I was pretty miserable in the heat but let Bryson "win" on the challenge that he was the hottest. He never complained and was awesome! (Baseball is serious stuff around here and they even make yard signs for the boys. Bryson was impressed with the fancy uniform.)
Bryson played 2nd most of the game with one inning in right field (the only time he was close enough that I could get a good photo). He did not have many balls come to him for fielding opportunities but did have a great play as second baseman in the last inning with stopping the ball and throwing the out at first. He is definitely one of the best fielders on his team - he is quick, pays attention, and does really well at thinking ahead of time through all the many details before needing to make a decision.

The highlight (and stress for the mother) was the game winning hit! It was the bottom of the sixth with one out and they had someone on second and third. They needed just one more run to win. I started video taping Bryson batting and he had 2 fouls. I then was so nervous and didn't want the video tape to jinx anything so had to put it down - his next swing was a double and he got the other 2 players in! We were so proud of him!


Kevin was the pitcher for the second game - after 2 hours of pitching he said his arm was tired:)

Luckily there was a playground with sand behind us for the second game so we never even saw the girls until the end of the game...
