Batter Up!
July 8th, 2009. (13 months, 1 week old.) by benMy friend Mr. Alton got me a genuine Louisville Slugger for my 1st birthday. M&D seem to be a little nervous watching me walk around the house with it, but I showed them that there was nothing to worry about.
All I need now is someone to pitch to me!
(Ed. Note: I think you still have a few years yet, Ben…)
M&D, I’m not sure I would recommend you teaching Ben how to swing that thing just yet. He needs to learn about inside toys and outside toys first.
How old do you have to be to play in the minor leagues?
I think you have to be at least a high school graduate. So, due to his obvious brilliance, Ben will probably be good to go at about 14. I don’t agree about not teaching him to swing that thing. Never too early to start working on his swing mechanics but he does look like a natural to me. I do agree that you should either clear a REALLY LARGE area in the house OR take him outside.
