Tanner is the New Lincecum

Summer Ball is moving right along. We moved from last place to third place last night in a win against the Mavericks. The best part of the night though was when Tanner got to take his place on the mound for the first time ever. He was so excited and so nervous. My little skin-and-bones 7 year old boy ( we affectionately call him our "preying mantis") struck out three batters his first inning up. And these were kids that were, on average, 2-3 years older than him. All of us were so proud of him and so excited for him. He was shy about it, as usual, but glowing the rest of the night.
