Nighttime:

We got home, I went to use the bathroom and when I came out Gabriel was acting crazy again. My wife had an attitude about it so instead of me having dinner I just went with the boys to watch tv in the room. It really does such when people are mad at other people and take it out on you. Not my fault she doesn't set hard boundaries with this crazy kid. Anyway, here relaxing. Had dinner and drinks and now playing Madden.  Going to bed after.

Opening Day

Today was Javi's and Gabriel's Opening day. Javi played the morning game with his team the Giants vs the Marlins. He started on the bench but came in after he took an AB. He was one of the few kids that put the ball in play. It was a very cute moment for him. All week he had been nervous and preparing for his turn to hit. During practice he was not doing too well with live pitching,  but today in his one AB he made solid contact and would have gotten a hit if he only ran. When he made contact he stood there, maybe he was startled by the crowd cheering, mixed up what they do in practice or just got lost in the moment. By the time he ran he was thrown out by a few steps. He was smiling so much and his smile was big and bright. Eventhough the result was an out, I was super proud of him. He played LF for 2 innings and the game was over. They had lost 14-0. 

When we had our team meeting after the game some of the coaches focused on the negatives, I just reminded the kids that this was out 1st game, we will practice what we need to practice and that they played hard and well and that I was proud of them.

After Javi's game we ran over to watch Gabriel's Red Sox take on the Yankees in teeball. The game was already started, but I saw him hit and run the bases. I saw video later of how all the kids converged on the ball and they looked awesome. I hope to see more games.

I am super happy that both of them had a great day at the ballpark. All I want is them to have fun and learn to play. Javi's next Game is Tuesday against the A's.
