Derek and Jason start of new season of Little League baseball of PVLL. Derek is on the Minors Cubs and Jason is on the Farm Red Sox. This is Derek's second year in minors and he is looking forward to a great year. If will fun for him to be one of the "old" guys on the team. Jason is playing Farm for this first time. He was bored with Tball last year and is really looking forward to hitting off the machine in live game situations.

Last weekend I took both boys to the practice field and had Derek pitching from the mound. He was throwing strikes and looking good, so I decided to add a wrinkle. I had Jason step into the batters box, mostly so Derek could throw in a situation that mimicked a real game. To my surprise, Jason hit three out of the first five strikes! I was really impressed and expect good things from both boys this year. Who knows, maybe Jason will fill in a minors game later this year.
