And now batting for the Milwaukee Brewers...

Finley Forseter! Yes, we are now a T-ball family and Finley is loving every second.  It's certainly not the action packed game that soccer was in the fall, but Finley is happy and being the sports lovers that we are - it's all good.
The first practice was in a chilly, drizzly rain but we're pretty sure that Finley didn't notice and probably thought it was odd that Dagny and I were huddled under an umbrella!  He also did pretty well hitting off a tee, which he hasn't done in a couple years since he can hit a thrown pitch.  His three coaches are super nice and the head coach really knows what he's talking about (so Dan and I are learning a thing or two!).  Here's Finley during a fielding/throwing drill:

His first game was against the Marlins and while it was a bit on the boring side (1.5 hrs/three innings with no outs and everyone bats), it was neat to see him be part of a team and light up when it was his turn at the plate.  There he is as the shortstop (#14, not that you can his #).



And here's his final turn to hit.
