Tigers Rock!!!

Nikelis and the rest of the Tigers had the honor of playing at the Dr. Pepper field at the Arlington ball park. For those of you that don't know, the ball park is home to the Texas Rangers!!!
That's right, Nikelis got to play on the big field, well not the actual field, but a smaller replica right outside homeplate. All the boys had grins plastered on their faces when their names were called over the PA system, just like in the big leagues!!! Now everyone knows that I don't like Nikelis to be referred to as Nick, so when I was asked to give him a nickname I was perplexed, everything we call him pertains to pooh......hahaha...amazing!!! Well, Coach Scott, awesome as he is, came up with a nickname for the boy: TNT. Why? Because just like dynamite, big things come in little packages!!! The ironic thing is I was given the nickname Dynamite when I played ball as a kid, and for the exact same reason!!! He certainly is my boy, sorry my Love!!! ;-) We did end up spankin some major booteh, not that it matters whether they win or lose...
Anyway, I am so elated because we seriously have a great team, to include the families. We cheer the loudest at every game and we have a great time together at practices as well. There isn't one person I am not proud to know on the team, its pretty obvious that Nikelis feels the same way. I am going to be so sad when we have to leave them behind...for now I'll just engulf myself in the memories we get to make with them.
Our little Nikelpoops did such an awesome job, he made some great plays, got some RBI's and even slid home, not that he needed to or anything, but it was cute all the same. The only thing that stung my heart that day is that Erik had to miss out, but thank goodness for modern day technology, he is never too far away to join in on the excitement!!!
Go Tigers Go...oh and yes, they are still undefeated!!!
