Why I love playing baseball, because it helps me stay more active and fit. It also helps me learn more respect for others. Why I love playing baseball is because, it gets my mind off of everything thing in life.
The person who inspires is my dad. He always said do better than him. Act like I’ve been there before. He use to push me to the limits whenever we did a workout and now that he’s gone those words and memories will always be with me. So every time I step onto the field, I do it for my Dad.
There isn’t just one time that this kid has made me proud. But after his Dad passed away suddenly, he became a force to be reckoned with on that field. A young gentleman off the field. He became a leader and awesome teammate. He celebrates others more than himself. His respect for the game and strong faith in all he does makes me proud everyday.
