A lot of the topics posted on this site are very serious in nature so let’s change it up a little and have some fun today.
Please share throwback photo(s) of your son(s) and also include grade or age at the time of the photo.
Ready, set, go!
Thank you in advance for sharing. :-)

#1 11U Summer: U trip AAA state back in 08, he came in to relieve his buddy Matt Olson who plays at Richmond now and threw 4 scoreless to win the game. Team Wilson AAA state champs...such a big deal back then.
#2 6U FallBall: He still makes this face...holding breath and used to always grunt...i think he still does.
#3 6U Fallball: One of my all time favs.
EDIT: I had to add some of him when he was little ..these others from y'all are great!

I see the orange ‘stache on his lip. LoL

Great pics. Love the batting helmet with chinstrap look. Baller.
Good idea. Here are a few to share:
Photo 1- About the time that he started playing T-ball, and his first MLB love were the Twins (before it became the Nats).
Photo 2: Rooting for the Nats after the team came to DC and the new stadium opened.
Photo 3: Spending time with Dominican and American players in Consuelo, DR on the amazing Home Run Baseball Camp trip organized by the one and only Coach Mac. Our son is third from the right.
Photo 4: Pitching in the Kyle's Kamp tournament, an event in DC/VA that raises money every year to help kids battling cancer.
I'm guessing 10u park ball - 2017 is the kid with the big grin and big gap in front

There aren’t many things better than an Icee on a hot, summer day.
First weekend of son's 13U or 14U summer season.....he's on the right. All 5 of those guys were all the same grade (2015) and all eventually went to D1's. From left...Kent St, Virginia, BGSU, Gardner Webb and BGSU....funny thing is, at 6'1, he's the tallest of those 5 now.

This is close.
That’s probably better. :-)
This is a great idea HSHULER. The top picture was about age 8. LSU wasn’t on the radar. He was all UGA then. A good friend was the coach and is HUGE LSU fan I guess it was destiny, haha. The bottom picture is from Omaha this past season. Unfortunately, it was from game 1 of finals against the Gators. We came up a bit short.
