The St. Matthews Yankees

Braden has begun a new baseball season with a new team in a new town. The league held tryouts in February and, much to his delight, he was drafted by the Yankees! We live in a community within Louisville called St. Matthews which has its own Little League chapter. To begin the season, they have a parade through town that ends at the fields where opening day ceremonies as games are held. Here's some parade pictures:



The Yankees opening day opponent was the Mets. Braden played several different positions and went 1 for 2 with two RBI, two stolen bases, and one run scored. He also got a lot of action in the field. Take a look:

According to Braden...it was a very good day.
