My Nephew Could Beat Up Your Nephew

Britton and the Padres played their first game yesterday. Apparently it's called "coach pitch," which demands an increase in both respect and seriousness above it's not-cool-anymore counterpart, "T-ball." So the fact that Britton is playing some sort of baseball is stinking awesome and it makes me sick that I'm not there to see it. Britton played shortstop, which, as everybody knows, is the coolest position to play, it's where the action is and shortstops usually end up marrying supermodels or soccer stars.



Why is he using a right-handed glove though? Isn't he left-handed?
Read more about the game or see pictures.

Britton is left handed, but seems to throw better right handed -- he bats right handed, too. I guess it's what feels natural to him, so that's what they are going with. It was the most fun I've had at a baseball game in many many years!

I think pretty much the only thing he does do with his left hand is write. I agree with Mom, it was a blast!

they are both mostly right. he does everything but baseball with his left hand. he started playing and he cant seem to throw with the left. he loves your glove the best though. he was so proud that his jaron got him a glove. thank you so much for getting it.
