Chase Smithson


Chase had a ballgame this weekend in Houston. We were not there of course, but Mindi sent the email Chase's coach had sent. In it he wrote,

" But Chase stole the show on the mound today as he came in to seal the win by holding the Astros to only 1 run in his pitching debut. It isn't easy to take the mound in the middle of a game,,,,especially when it is the first time you've ever pitched,,,,,but Chase looked mature, patient and methodical out there as he struck out a couple of the Astros better hitters. For his outstanding relief performance Chase was given today's game ball. Nice job Chase."

It was so wonderful having them in town. I miss them living here. Their cousins, Landrie and Jackson, probably like having them in Houston.
