4 year old T-ball

Our son is 4 years old. My husband used to be very much into sports but became physically disabled (in a wheelchair) and cannot play with our son.
So we signed up our lil one for T-ball. Today was their first practice. He was so happy to go. Here is my problem he was the youngest and the only one who had no idea how to play. He participated fine. Threw the ball when he was told, ran, hit. But the coaches didn't hide their disappointment very well. If you are a coach for this age group, aren't you supposed to teach the kids about the game? After the first 20min they stopped paying attention to him whatsoever. My question I guess is how can I help my son in between practice so he can become better and more confident. No, I am not going to stop my son from going. He wants to do it and I paid for it. I am far from wanting or expecting him to be an allstar player (unlike some of the parents, who were there), but I do believe he deserve a chance to at least learn to play.
