Kid on my son's JV team got a double yesterday. First hit that kid got in 2 years. The kids on the team yelled as loudly for him than they did my son's 375 ft homer that day (forgive the brag).

Come to think of it, the kids on the team may have yelled louder for the double. It was such a big deal to all of those boys. I loved it and I clapped wildly, too.

Sometimes baseball should just be enjoyed as baseball. Not a means to an end, not a business, just boys playing baseball for the love of the game. I lost track of that for awhile, but thanks to some words of wisdom on this site I have my head on straight again.
