Blue Claws vs Sidewinders (lost 7-15)

Finally, we had the full roster show up. But rather than help us, it seemed to hurt us. The team didn't really have much team energy today and the guys (and girl) slogged their way through 6 innings in three hours. Maybe it was the rainy week. Who knows. It was something, because they did not display their usual fiestiness.
Henry's performance today was also less than spectacular. He had one triple (yeah!), one pop up (caught!) and one strike out (boo!).
He played pitcher, but didn't really get into a good groove, so coach Hawkins pulled him halfway through the inning. Henry didm't seem to mind.
And he played catcher, keeping great control of the ball and bossing the pitcher around every chance he got (this might just be 'his' position)!

Glad he wasn't too upset by the loss. He looks so tall on some of these photos...what's his height now?

he's just past the tip of my nose now...so he's probably just around 5 feet. He grew a lot this winter!
