Gunner gives his “all”. He loves playing baseball, his passion, and loves to play basketball and football. He enjoys the competitiveness that each sport brings. He always will break it down after each game. He does that on his own. As his father, a coach of high school sports, I let him be.
He loves to follow Major League Baseball players, Houston Astro players Altuve, Alvarez, and Framer. He loves to pitch in the game when it is a close game or a come from behind win. He feels he can perform with confidence like those players. He loves his coaches for his city and travel ball teams he has played for since he was 4. Watching games are inspiring to him, from stats to game situations.
I was able to be there to watch him hit his first home run! I got the video from behind the plate. I was so proud of him from all of his hard work in batting practice prior has paid dividends for him. As he was rounding the bases he was trotting and shaking hands of the other fielding players. He was very humble. That moment, mad me very proud!
