Jack seems to be enjoying it very much as he can aimlessly exsist in his own world, while still being part of a team. We seem to have found his "place" among kids and parents who understand that sometimes its "O.K." to sit this inning out or that it's "O.K." if you want to run back and forth (and back and forth, and back and forth) around the perimeter of the outfield fence when playing defense. Everyone here is a winner.
Jack took a liking to the batting helmet and he insists on wearing it for all aspects of the game, including when playing on defense. He has also taken to making up his own "position" on field and does a good job of making himself look a part of the team.
From Jack's first game:
Jack getting "coaching" on being the "pitcher's back up" (a position he made up)
Jack in the far, far, far right field position. I believe it's called the "Foul ball fielder" position.
Here he is in the "catcher's position" in the far, far right field. He's totally ready.
From Jack's second game:
Jack at bat!
Jack on base, doing his own thing...
Jack on base, ready to run!
