It was late September and her favorite baseball team, the Cardinals, was in Houston, holding fast to the National League’s second wild card, a playoff berth they would eventually win. Maggie Bohannan, now 12, had surgery set for that day. She needed a second port implanted, a new access point for chemotherapy to pour into her bloodstream, and she could use a laugh.

So, she sent a text message to a friend and explained how she was getting ready for the procedure by having her hair buzzed off. The “Matt Holliday haircut again,” she joked.

The reply came quickly.

“That’s great,” it read. “It’s a lot less maintenance in the morning.”

Her friend would know.

As a reds fan, NOT a Cardinals fan at all, BUt I am now huge Holliday and Freese fans, I hope they hit 40 HR's a piece next year, just none against my Reds


We can lose all 18 games against the Reds as long as the Cardinals can win 15+ against every other team in the division Wink

Really is a great story. And the children's hospitals really are great places.
