Ian had a baseball game Saturday afternoon and it was Gavin's debut announcing. He has been practicing for about 2 weeks. He knew all the Scrappers - names and numbers. Nobody needed to tell him what to say. He even did the Pledge of Allegiance, which is done at the start of every West Raleigh game. Ian's 2nd at-bat, Gavin announced him as, "And now batting for the Scrappers...#4...Ian Turner...my big brodder!" Announced just like that! It was absolutely adorable!
Ian played well! He was given an opportunity to play first base for the first time in a game. There were two outs with a runner on first and second. The batter hits the ball right towards first base/right field area. Ian sticks his glove out as far as it could go and the ball landed in the glove! He looked in the glove to really see the ball was still there. Everyone was cheering. The game was over! He went to coach. The coach lifted him up like the team had just won the World Series! It was GREAT!!!!!!!!!
