Caiden and baseball

This is Caiden's first year with the Kearns baseball program and somewhat his first year of fast pitch baseball. Two years ago he played in a league with 6-8 year olds that was fast pitch and he was of the younger kids, so he did not hit too well. They changed their rules the following year to do machine-pitch only and he had close to a .700 batting average. A lot of the kids in this league still struck out at the machine, but caiden could hit anything over the plate.

This year he's back to fast pitch and besides being walked, he has only gotten on base with a hit once or twice, but he's learning.

He also gets beaned a lot. This one had him beaned on his right elbow, BEHIND him.
