Boys and Balls

Matt and Nick began t-ball this past weekend and are playing for the Texas Rangers. Their team consists of children with disabilities, so no hard set rules and lots of fun for everyone. I think Nick would have preferred to watch from the stands and gave his "buddies" challenges, but Matt had a blast. He realized very quickly that if he ran fast enough, he could catch every ball hit. Of course, he'd also try to slide into home plate while playing third base.....

They will play until the middle of May every Saturday morning.
