Evan's Machine Pitch Baseball

 This year Evan is playing on the Arizona Diamondbacks machine-pitch team.  While his team is young (most are doing their first year of machine-pitch and this is his 2nd), his coach has done a really nice job running practices and getting them ready.  Their first game was a tie against the Rockies.  Evan was the catcher for two innings and he had the first base hit of the game for his team.  











Their second game was a tough one.  They played the Royals and I swear, every kid on that team could hit to the outfield.  They are allowed 5 runs per inning before it's forced over and they did that every single inning.  I think the final score was 25-2.  Evan struck out both times at bat.

Their game this past weekend was much better!  They played the Brewers and won 8-2.  He played against our neighbor two doors down.  Evan hit 3 out of 4 times at bat and played the pitcher position one of the innings.  It was fun seeing him improve this game and feed off of the energy his team brought.
