My sister (his mom) and his dad were riding him because he looked like he was going to cry. When I told my sister to lay off and let hm be, I was told "there's no crying in baseball!" Ugh! I have 2 girls who are not into organized sports. I eventually had to stop going to my nephews games because I just couldn't stand how the parents talked to their kids there. Always yelling and shaming.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10494831650370783065noreply@blogger.com
