*Boston missed game 1 of his tournament because he was dehydrated & had a little spat of heat exhaustion. He slept for almost 24 hours straight minus the time he was up getting ready for his game that he threw up all of his water he drank on the way there just before the team took the field, so he didn't play & went home and back to bed!!*

During Boston's 3rd game of the tournament, he was "recruited" to play on a 7yr old traveling team this Fall for St. Joe Smoke.  He is sooooo pumped to be headed to the big leagues :)

Madi also got the chance to pitch in one of the games.  

She did pretty well for her first attempt at pitching in a game!!

She had one strike out & didn't hit anyone 

(which is a pretty big deal, as pretty much someone gets hit almost every inning!)

D&R Tigers finished their regular season 8-2 & 0-2 in the tourney.

**all stats aren't entirely accurate as the kids think that whatever base they make it to after they hit is what they got instead of base on errors ;) **

BASEBALL CAMP AT K-STATE!

pretty big time at the indoor facility

on the field

with his FAVE KSU player, #9 Blair DeBord

Boston made a friend while he was there that he went to the batting cages & played with one night.  While he was with him, Boston told the mom that he was going to play baseball for K-State and then get "drifted"  aka drafted to the pros!
