I have avoided tooting the horn in these kinds of posts in the past, but I could not be prouder of my 12-year-old son this young season. Originally he was not going to play the local rec, and concentrate on AAU travel ball. With travel only playing double headers on Sunday, he chose to play rec as well at the last minute.
We are now 3 weeks into the 2 seasons.
He is batting 1.000 in rec. Every hit has been for extra bases. SLG 2.333 I can honestly say this is the weakest rec league I have ever seen so these stats are not that amazing, Though he has faced some decent pitchers.
In AAU he is hitting .667 and an OBP of .972, SLG .750
All this while playing solid D at catcher.
