Jake Thompson pro debut

Great start. I'm sure you will get some ridicule, but for the majority of us who are interested please keep the updates coming.

Thanks for your support! Let the haters keep on hating, they obviously are in the minority. We hope ALL of the DFW boys excel!

Way to Go Big Guy !!!!! I dont know who the "haters" are but your my sons role model !

Nice job! Thanks for the update!

Keith,
We sent Jake congrats through Randle, but congrats to you and Lisa as well. We wish nothing but success for the big boy! We'll keep close tabs on him.

Thanks, brother. Back at you and yours.

Very cool

Live the dream Big Jake!

It's worth the roasting. So here I go. Congrats to Big Jake, Got to coach him last year in the Battle of the Borders and he was a MAN that weekend hitting and pitching. MVP of the whole tournament and well deserved. Good luck in your next step and don't stop playing until they make you stop.

Thata boy Jake!

Nice job Jake! Looking forward to more updates. Have always been happy for Jake's success. He's a great talent and a nice kid. Good Luck.

Great Job Jake!!! CONGRATS!!

I don't know Jake but I am very happy for him and his parents who have worked so very hard to get to this place. Represent my man.

Congrats Train. Great start for Jake. I follow him and others on twitter to keep up a bit.

Hope you don't mind me hijacking your thread a second to toot a couple of other local horns.

Travis Ballew and Austin Elkins - playing with Tri-City Valleycats and the big boys of the Class A New York-Penn League.

Ballew 6.2 IP 1 ER 8 SO 1 BB .143 AVG and picked up his second W tonight.
Spent today before the game reading to kids at the library. Learned something in college. Ha!

Elkins .367/.406/.533 3 SB - Dinged his first HR in the opening game against Vermont. A team catalyst with the bat and on the bases

65 degrees for game time tonight in Troy
