Broken Thumb for Jack

Pretty crappy weekend for Jack.  Third tournament of the season……a season he has worked so hard for.  He has put in the work in the off season and ready to crush it this spring/summer.  While he was catching a Saturday game there was a play at the plate.  A very routine play, nothing looked crazy about it.  Jack tagged the guy, got him out and hustled off the field.  The next inning when he came out to catch, the first ball he caught in the warm up, he shook his hand and threw off his mitt.  He walked off the field and didn’t return……

His thumb hurt him really bad.  When the runner had slid into him it had kind off hyper extended his thumb and hurt him pretty badly.

 

Later that week it was still bothering him a lot.  Mike scanned him that Thursday, to find out it was broken and probably needing surgery as well.  After speaking to a few of the ortho surgeons he knows, they all agreed he should probably have the surgery and get it fixed correctly.  WHAT.A.BUMMER!!!

 

So this picture was me watching the end of the tournament from my car.  It was super cold outside and Jack couldn’t play, so I watched from my car, with the heater on……
