Always fun. I was unable to attend the dbl header out of town but a friend sent a couple videos. I am always shocked how anxious I get at the start of the season. Sounded like a good outing. Team went 1 and 1. Son played well. Two innings on the hump for 4 k's, 2 walks, no hits, no runs scored. Sounds like he could have a significant pitching role. 4 PA's, 2 for 3 and a walk. I always look forward to the new season!
Parents of pitchers, does it ever get easier to watch your son? Internally, I am a basket-case while he is pitching. I thought it would get easier as he gets older- WRONG. It seems to be getting worse...
I think with the shrinking funnel and understanding fewer and fewer spots are available, that every outing has an impact on how long he has left in the game. He keeps kicking and improving. He loves playing but is talking more and more about being a pitcher only.
