Today was Coach Pitch "evaluations" where they run every boy through some hitting (6 pitches, infield, outfield, baserunning and pitching) and mark them up to keep the teams as even as possible. While last year we barely made it through with many tears and angst, this year Conor was one of the BEST hitters in his group (about 10 kids), handled the infield grounders like a pro with great throws, caught the first three pop flies for outfield (then they gave him REALLY HARD ones in his second try, but he managed to track them down too), and he was one of the better base runners as well. Plus he had a really fun time with his friends, and had a really fun time. Pretty good considering he had not picked up a bat since last year, and we played catch for 10 minutes before the session started.
