Cooper's first time pitching

Cooper got to pitch for the first time yesterday.  He's been working hard at it and so he was excited to finally have a chance to try it.

Here are pictures of him warming up:



He did a great job for it being his first time but his accuracy wasn't quite up to snuff yet.  We'll continue to practice and next year I have no doubt he'll be a great pitcher.  Here he is getting a strike on an older kid:



One big win while pitching, though, was when there was a runner on 3rd base and the kid tried to steal home on a wild pitch.  Coop covered home base like he was supposed to and was able to tag him out.  I believe this was there first out at home of the season.  Megan got a video of it:


Cooper was also excited to get another hit for the season:


 And then after stealing 2nd and 3rd base he got hit in by Rile.


Coop has 3 more games so we hope to see him improve even more!
