The Pirates did it!!! They had a great game with some great hits and good fielding as well. They actually "mercied" the other team in the 4th inning which means they were ahead by 10 runs, so they call the game. The score was 12-2. It was weird b/c all of a sudden, the umps called the game and the kids nor the coaches were expecting it. So it was a downer. Our kids didn't realize what was going on so they just sort of walked off the field. Our coaches wanted to keep playing, so they took out our good pitcher to give the other team some runs b/c the 5th inning was for fun. And Cobe got to pitch a few! He had another great hit out into the grass in right field and this time, I was there to see it! :-) It was such a fun season!!!! I thought until today that he'd be on the Pirates again next year, but coach said they throw the 8 year olds back into the draft since they weren't drafted this year, so he could end up on a totally different team. Hmmm... we'd be sad to leave the Pirates. Ryan may coach, then he'd get to be on the Pirates again. We'll see...
For some reason (I'm guessing because Cobe is so little) his team kept picking him up for all of the pictures. This is the 2008 Pirates accepting their team plaque.
Here they go again picking Cobe up!
Here is my little man in action on the pitcher's mound. He loved it! He only got about 4 pitches in before they called the game for the 2nd time.
Now what will we do without baseball????? Oh yeah- soccer camp starts Monday! :-)

Congratulations to Cobe and his team. How awesome is that. Great season and what alot to be proud of! Where is Cobe going to be in soccer camp? I wonder if it is too late to get D in. I feel so bad that I haven't done anything for him this summer. He is so totally bored!
That is so great! He looks so proud. Hopefully all of your future Little League seasons are as exciting as your first!
Congratulations Cobe! Love the pics! I can't wait until the games are that fun!
