What a
baseball season Jackson had! This year Jackson played kid pitch on the
Phillies. He was thrilled because the game was played with actual rules.
It seems that in t-ball and coach pitch everyone wins...Jackson is not a
big fan of that rule. Jackson was also thrilled because Todd was going
to coach. Jackson's
team practiced once a week and had two games a week. It was a lot of
baseball, but it was so enjoyable. Aubrin loved going to games to see
all of her friends. Many of the boys have siblings right around Aubrin's age. And of course Reagan (Aidan's sister) was there. The girls get along so well. 
Throughout
the season Jackson had many fans come and watch him play. He was always
very excited to see special people in his life up in the stands.
Grandma and Grandpa made it to every game except one. Grandpa even drove
back from Chicago early one morning for a noon game. 
Jackson's
favorite positions to play were pitcher and catcher. He especially like
to catch when his buddy Aidan was pitching. 
One highlight from
Jackson's season is that he was picked to play in the All Star game with
5 of his teammates. He felt pretty proud to be the starting pitcher for
the game. 
The Phillies won their regular season with a 12-2 record.
They also won the end of the year tournament. They won the tournament in
extra innings with the score 7-6. If I can be a bragging mom for a
minute~ Jackson scored the winning run in extra innings!!!! It was a
great game.
