Baseball- Cohen

Cohen started T-Ball this year. We went to the first practice in April and he sat on the side and cried. The only thing he participated in was walking up to get his jersey. I knew that he loved baseball and he knows what to do so I think he was just nervous around all of the new people. At that first practice the kids decided that their team name would be Orioles. 

A few days later Cohen had his first game. We were so nervous that he would cry and not participate and once he gets in that mood there is no talking him out of it!

He definitely seemed ready to play!



Kempton picked out his MN Twins Joe Mauer shirt to wear because it was #7 just like Cohen's



Cohen's first time batting at the game. He did awesome! He was a bit nervous but he did it! In this league there are no "outs" as they are just learning the basics of the game. Every kid gets to hit the ball and run to first. Then run to second after the next kid hits, and then eventually running to home.

We let Kemp sit on the bench while Cohen's team was in the field

















His first time hitting the ball in a game!

As the season progressed, he did better and better. He was still always nervous, but always participated and never cried. He said that he had fun and is excited for next year. He liked his teammates even though I don't even believe that he ever talked to them! Haha! Here are some more pictures and videos from his baseball season





















Hitting without a Tee

His last game of the season :(


As you may have notice, Kempton was able to play with Cohen for a few games at the end of the season. I'll do another post about Kempton's baseball adventures! Anyway, we are super excited to watch Cohen play again next year!

Love,
Katie
