Yesterday marked another first for Mason.
It was his very first day of practice as a member of the Granite Falls Reds. Before getting down to business, he made sure to catch a little down time, of course. But it didn't last long.
The clock ticked to 6:30pm and it was time to get serious, and I DO mean serious. Coach Jeff wasn't about to let his team run around like a bunch of WILD kids.
This coach had a job to do. And he did it quite well. He tamed those kids and made sure they knew they were there to do one thing - to learn the game of baseball.
Mason has never played on a team before, but you wouldn't have known it by looking at him. He looked like pro out there.
Yes at times, running wild, but mostly tamed.
He took direction pretty well and enjoyed time with his new teammates, his BIG cousin, Ki-Ki, and his little buddy, Eli.
Welcome to the Little Leagues guys!
