Matthew Gilson, 9, practices throwing and catching drills Saturday at Ingersoll Arena in Auburn with the Northern Storm Baseball League. Gilson has been playing baseball since he was 4 years old and prefers to play third base, the first position he ever tried. His father, Jon Gilson, watching from the stands, says he also started playing baseball at age 4 and continued through high school. “I’m a big proponent of kids doing something, whether it’s chess or sports.
