Jayden hit the ball!! It happened last night at an out of town game. Let me give you a replay: Jayden got up to bat, looked back at us, gave us a thumbs up, swept his "pretty boy" hair to the side, swung once - strike, swung twice POW! Stunned - he stalled a few seconds as the crowd went wild and yelled RUN, RUN! He made it to first, the next two batters struke out, but at the next hit he ran all the way to third! My heart was pounding and I have never been so excited and relieved for a base hit!
Just a little history: Jayden has been scared of that darn pitching machine since the first practice. He pretty much just gets up there, swings his 3 swings and goes back to the dug out -- I knew that if he could just hit it once he would get his confidence up - well here we go -- watch out - because we have a new batter on the team!
