Baseball Be Coming

About week to Pitchers and Catchers start. I can't wait for it. I don't particularly enjoy baseball in the gym but heck who cares it's baseball. We had twenty six kids sign up yesterday hopefully we can get some more. Were missing a kid who pitches and catches. He can be a big contribute but if he doesn't show up that means people will have to step up and play new positions.

One good thing about this upcoming season is were having all of our starters coming back except for one. Also many of the kids have been working out and the off season. Sank always says players are made in the off season not during the season.

Now that Cowing had gotten his back surgery hopefully he will be able to be as good as new. If that's possible for a man whose been through hell and back with his surgeries. It was his knee last year now it's his  back. Hopefully he can remain pain free. Pitchers and Catchers countdown only three days till Monday, then I along with others become the happiest kids in the school. When it's baseball season each day during it is like Christmas, I wake up with joy and can't wait till practice.

D-Soap knows all about this feeling, were second team swag. Meaning Dylan and I got second team last year for baseball. Personally I think we were cheated out of it just because the other kids were seniors, but were grateful for just making a team in the first place.

I will always remember a specific time in baseball. It wasn't when we lost Easter Maine's, it wasn't when I hit a home run. It was when Dave got his chance to pitch his senior night. The only reason I remember it is Dave has this gigantic smile on his face when he was pitching. You can ask anyone its true. This kid had finally got his chance and he did great. These special moments you will always remember everyone says, I'm sure I will never forget.
