Presley was moved up to the 8U (8 and under) pitching machine league this year. She has had several practices and has only managed to hit the ball foul so far, so we weren't expecting much for her first game.
We were rained/froze out on Saturday morning so they re-scheduled her game for Sunday.
And boy did she shock us by going 3 for 3 on the day. She hit the first pitch on her first time up to bat and then also connected on both of her other at-bats. I teared up a bit on her first hit. So proud and also thinking of all my good memories of when I played softball. Seeing her in her softball uniform, hearing the cheers/chants come from the dug-outs. So sweet.
She played mainly short stop and third while out on the field and had one good stop.
Wearing the face mask while playing 3rd.
So happy to have made it to 1st!!
It was a great game. Presley's team all of the game but in the final inning the other team came back and we ended up tied. That's ok. We had fun, and Presley gained some confidence. Looking forward to watching her grow this season!!!
