He loves the thrill of the game—the crack of the bat, the challenge of every pitch, and the joy of making big plays with his team. Baseball teaches him focus, patience, and how to bounce back after failure. But most of all, he loves the bond with his teammates and the feeling of giving his all on the field every time.
His biggest inspiration is his dad, who taught him to love the game and to always play with heart. On the field, he looks up to players like Aaron Judge Betts for their hustle, humility, and versatility. They remind him that hard work, a positive attitude, and being a team player matter just as much as talent.
One proudest moment was watching him hit his first grand slam—just three years into playing. It’s been amazing to see how quickly he’s grown, how naturally the game comes to him, and how hard he works to keep getting better.
