2008 AAA Baseball Game #6

Jack played in his sixth game of the 2008 Little League season against the Mets.

Jack continues to get on base; he was 2 for 3 at the plate. In each of his first two at bats, he hit a pitch up the middle that was deflected by the pitcher. He reached base safely and eventually scored both times.

The umpire was consistently calling a large strike zone. The first pitch of his third at bat was a called strike up under his chin. The second pitch was wild and thrown behind him. As he dove to get out of the way, the ball nicked the bat and the umpire called a second strike. Completely flustered at that point, he struck out of the third pitch.

Jack played five innings at shortstop. Continuing the trend for most of the season, not very many balls are being hit to the left side of the infield.

The Padres won the game by a score of 11 to 4. Their record for the season is 3 wins and 3 losses.
