What I love most about playing baseball is the people and the sense of community. Being part of a team that supports each other, pushes each other to get better, and shares the same passion for the game makes it more than just a sport, it feels like family.
I’m inspired by friends/teammates who are better than me because they push me to improve and work harder. Competing with them motivates me to level up my game and keep getting better every day.
The moment that makes me proudest was when baseball became more than just a fun activity for him. You could see the shift; he started showing up early, working harder, and truly committing himself to the game. That passion and dedication changed everything. Not just in baseball but in life also.
