Reply to "What Was Your Best Day in Baseball?"

A few "best moments":

* Witnessing my son's first double play (at about age 8) and trying not to act too smug at dinner afterwards as all the parents marveled over his athleticism

* Two "almost" games: (1) the first was when son was 14-years-old and his Jr. League team came within one game of winning the Texas West Jr. League championships (we followed the career of the winning pitcher and he was drafted out of high school and is now playing D1 ball; even then, we knew he was something special! Wink ) (2) the second was this past May, when son's high school team (ranked 6th in the country) was only one pitch away from making the state tourney

* Our son's absolutely outstanding performance - both defensively and offensively - that followed an incredibly dismal performance during the previous game at the Jr. Olympics

* Signing day for my son and his high school teammate, whom he had played with for 8 years, which was covered by the newspaper and 2 TV stations

* Getting to see son make his first defensive play and get his first hit in college ball last month during Parents' Weekend

Lots of fun memories!
