After a Blue Wave practice Rabbit and I were enjoying a dinner of burritos and tacos when we got the phone call from the Little League coach. He had been drafted into majors. This was very exciting for him and a reward for his hard work. Now the tough part. He knows he will not be the best anything on this team. I suspect lots of "pine" time for him and fighting for innings. However, he can certainly handle the pitching and will play to the best of his ability every chance he gets.
We got lucky with his coach as well. And to top it off, the team is the UCLA Bruins, one of Rabbit's "go to" schools. We have practice tomorrow when we get to see who else is on his team. I am sure we will know a few at least. Rabbit has a lot of work to do to prove that a 10YO can play in the majors. I know he will be up to the task.
