Yankees playoff game against the Cubs!

Here are the pictures from Myles' playoff game against the Cubs. The Cubs, just like the Braves tball team, were undefeated in the regular season. Yankees played a great game, but were not able to pull off a win. Myles had the best game of the season. He did something that he had been practicing all year long & we can't believe he did it his last game & against the best team in the league. He made a DOUBLE PLAY ALL BY HIMSELF!!!!! Here's how it all happened. There was a runner on first base & the Cubs hit a grounder to him. He plays second base so he tagged the runner going from first to second & then he threw the ball to first base to get the runner out. I don't think that we had cheered so loud before! We were all so excited for him & he couldn't quit grinning from ear to ear. And to top things off, he wasn't feeling well & come to find out he had an infection & had to have a baby tooth pulled out 2 days later. Here are my favorites from the game!

Leading off & getting ready to start the game!


And he swings!


And gets a double!!!!


Concentrating on the bases!



Not really!


And he is off!


Rounding third and heading towards home!


I love the expression on his face in this picture!


The 2 represents his DOUBLE PLAY! Way to go Myles!!!!


Next at bat!


It was a great season for the Yankees!
