There is an old Chinese Proverb that says...”The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step."
Peterson, you are pointed in the right direction. I will tell you that you MUST take one step at a time before you can proceed to the next. Never look past the challenge directly in front of you .... that is the ONLY one you must conquer. Stay focused!

Peterson, make sure to watch the number of innings you pitch next season. It sounds like you have a nice future ahead of you.

No offense, but innings not important. Pitch count is.

Peterson, just keep playing ball, and keep improving. Have fun. I think that's great that you want to continue to play year round.

Blackjack, Xfactor,fungo and Cougars...Thank you for being encouraging and kind to my son Aaron. I have posted on this website about my son before and I recieved some negative feedback. I was really afraid to let him post anything. Thank you...Starr
