Ethan is playing on the Minor's Owlz team this season in little league. It has been a lot of fun to watch him shine! He is a clear leader on his team and his coach relies on his ability a lot. The other boys look up to him and it's easy to see why. He is so good!
It doesn't help that he is a giant! He is with kids his own age and older but he looks like he at least a year or two older than any of the other kids. It is comical to look out and see him sticking out over everyone else.
His coach has him catching (of course, because that is his favorite position!) and pitching and playing short stop. At this point in the season no other kid has ever been able to steal second base on Ethan. He throws them out every time! It is so fun to watch him behind the plate... he is a total natural. To my surprise, he is also a pretty talented pitcher. The other night he was able to pitch a complete game (5 innings) in 49 pitches! That was pretty amazing. He gave up 1 run - a home run - to the other team. Plus he is was involved in every defensive play except one. Then in his last game he his a GRAND SLAM to win the game for the Owlz! Obviously I am just super proud of my boy!
