I got a double at practice on Monday!!! My coach kept telling me to hold the bat the right way and then he came over and showed me. So I tried it his way and what do you know I smacked that ball across the field!!!!!!!! I started running and looked at the coach and he was yelling at me to KEEP RUNNING so I went past first and then I saw the ball coming down at me at second but I got in just in time and I was SAFE!!!! My next time up I only got a single but I did go 4 for 4. I was up times and hit every time :) It felt really really good. When I wasn't batting I played shortstop and second base. It was awesome man!!!
But now I'm out for a little time. I hurt my ankle on Monday at practice. I was running the bases at the end of practice and when I was rounding third I rolled it and fell. It hurt but my coach was chasing me to make me run faster so I got up and kept going haha. The doctor says I'm off of it for 2 LONG weeks but I'm bugging my mom to let it be only one week. And we go to the batting cages this weekend and I can for sure do that. My mom promised me that since I can't do practice that I can go to some of Marissa's school games and see her friend play. He's on varsity this year and he's really really good so I can't wait to go see him play. And they have a great team this year!!!
Anyway thats my update for now.

Good Job with the Double and batting a thousand !! Way to hustle! Bummer about the ankle, make sure you do what the doctor says with heat, ice and elevation. The better you take care of it now, the faster you can recover. Be careful with the ankle during batting practice, you don't want to develop bad habits by compensating for the pain. Good Luck
A double!!! Woohoo!! That is amazing! I am so excited for you! AND you went 4 for 4.. Holy cow! You are a superstar!
Rest up and do what your dr says. We need you well so I can hear all about your amazing season!
It sounds like those games will be fun to go too. Enjoy it!
Speaking of baseball my Jacob started practice yesterday (finally!). He has a great coach and I think is going to have a great season and learn lots. We aren't sure what position he will be yet but our first game is in 2 weeks! Eek!
I hope your ankle heals very quickly! I will be sending quick healing prayers your way. Tell your mom that we need some baseball video and pictures!
