This weekend we journeyed back to KC for another ball tournament. It was a great weekend for baseball. It was 80 degrees and sunny. Even better than the weather, was the baseball. The boys played great, especially #9, CJ Smith. (He likes to be called CJ now. )
This fall season in St Louis has been rough. He is playing up a level in kid pitch, which slows everything down considerably. He also hasn't gotten the opportunity to show off his skills in the field either, pitching only once and being stuck in the outfield most of the time. Needless to say, we will be finding another team for next season. I am experiencing the anguish of biased coaching, or maybe I am the one that is biased. Whatever the reason, Carson has not been given a fair shake. It is a hard thing to sit back and watch. I can't imagine what the future holds in store for Jeremy and I along this athletic adventure. We are too competitive to keep our heads or our hearts in check all the time.
On a more positive note, the tournament was a lot of fun this weekend. It was machine pitch, so the boys got great hits. Carson nearly cleared the fence on a couple. He had some awesome catches at pitcher too. I caught myself jumping up and down. It was great to see him excited to play and enjoying himself again.
