My best memory was at PG-Jupiter many years ago with my eldest son.

He had a long season - with high school - then summer league and then College Select with TR's team. He played hurt (arm) the entire season.

It was the last game of the Jupiter series - his team was losing by about 8 runs - and in the last inning - he made two diving plays at shortstop - neither of which he completed.

When the game was over - you could see that he didnt have one ounce left in him. He looked like he could barely make it off the field.

But he played every inning from the beginning of that season - to the very end - with 100% effort.

Memories are weird sometimes - the game winning plays - the heartbreaking losses - but that day he dragged himself off that field in Jupiter is one I will always remember.
