Yea - I know it's off topic...but I got some pics from a professional photographer for Father's Day after one of my son's baseball games

AND

Many of you met Daniel during the Expo

AND

He can drive 40-42 second/laps at the go-kart track after just 3 sessions (Friday league guys do 35-37 seconds/lap)

Anyway...here he is at 9 years old:



He's throwing ~45-50mph fastball + change up ~35mph / 4'9" tall / 75lbs & still growing FAST! Normal inning = ~15-20 pitches (usually 2-3 Strikeouts PER INNING & only 2-3 walks per game). Other pitchers ~35-40 pitches an inning.

Great picture Jeff. I played baseball for eight years. That's awesome that your son is into it. Perhaps we'll get to meet at the next Expo

Didn't we meet at MAM last year at the Woodhouse event?

I'm the pitching coach for our team - that really just means I go to Daniel's lessons & repeat what they say ;P

 

Nice boy you got there. Looks to be the makings of one hell of a player

I hope so...I'm blowing my retirement on racing

 

How's your son liking his Cobalt GT-sports??

He sounds like a future baseball star!

It was nice meeting your son at the Expo. I think he liked our daughter Mollie the Bulldog

I was thinking the same thing!

 

nice pictures of your Son Jeff! Him and I need to play some homerun derby and see who can hit the most or strike out the most

 

Is he gonna inherit the R or you gonna buy him his own?

Great pics and I'm pretty sure your 9-year-old son can throw a baseball faster than I can

 

That was a nice Father's Day present.

Nice seeing you (and the family) again at the Expo. Ed

Dude - I'm the pitching coach & I only throw ~65-70mph.

I wonder how fast "weenie arms" can throw a ball - hmmmmm

He traded me the cobalts for another trip to the go-kart track. He can run the adult carts now. Their computer wouldn't print the times this session...

His 40-42 second laps were with the kids (lower powered) karts compared to the adults league times.

Added another pic.

This is a combo of 3 different pitches thrown at 3 different times. Each background I cut out had other players in different positions.

 

Jeff, that's awesome!
