I remember coaching a player who just loved the smell of field being mowed because it meant he was getting ready to play a game. It is always the little things which create the greatest opportunity! Very proud of Andrew for sticking with it and more importantly for him to recognize it is really the opportunity to play which has the greatest significance! Keep working hard!

My sons team played their first game of the season (scrimmage) last Tuesday. Many people on this site know that my son Andrew is recovering from Tommy John surgery and is in his 8th month of rehab. Well he got to dh and went 0 for 3 with one strike out. He did beat out the throw on a dropped third strike and eventually scored the tying run(game ended 7-7 tie).I figured he was going to be upset that he didn't get a hit. Well when he got in my truck for the trip home he had this huge smile on his face and said man it's good to be back on the field.
Sometimes we all get carried away with wins and loses and how well our team did or didn't do. There's that old saying about takeing time to smell the roses. Well since my sons injury I think it really hit home for us to take the time to enjoy every moment. He plays North County today and Arundel on Monday and we plan on enjoying every minute no matter what the outcome.
Good luck to everyone this season and take the time to smell the roses!

I also would like to congratulate your son for hanging in there and gutting it out...Must have been tough on him. I hope he has a great season. I am new to this website and was wondering if your son attends a Anne Arundel county school? |

bblife,
My son plays for Patapsco High School in Baltimore County. They lost to North County today 7-4, he went 2 for 2 with a double and a rbi. He got upset because they set the starters after three. I got upset because he slid into second hands first. We had a long talk after the game about his slide and his elbow.
Well thanks for all the kind words, if all goes well he will be pitching by the end of summer and early fall.
Good luck to all.

Glad to hear he is on the mend. Make him take his time. If he doesn't pitch until the fall, who cares? |
