Please Identify Your Son

PERFECT GAME This just a great topic that was started....AWESOME!!!!!

bballmom2---This is just so neat. Last year I did a search to find some old archives on my Chad and saw that there was ballplayer in TX named Chad Farr. Hopefully they will have the opportunity to meet one day. I tried to send you a private e-mail. Hope you catch this post. Take Care and we wish your Chad a spectacular 2004.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

My son is Eric Dickerhoff, an 03 graduate from the little bitty town of Ira texas. This is a 1 a school. We live in Snyder, Tx. He is at Garden City Juco in Kansas. he is a RHP

..interesting how the states of California, Florida, and Texas are near the top of the most number of posters.

Still makes me think that the numbers of pro players drafted are still a function of the large quantities of players in those states.

I'll add to KY

Perfect Game Midwest, Cedar Rapids Fall 2001

This was a nice idea by PG. I was reading the posts and found that on page 6 bbmama - identified her son Brett Rossi and he played on the same Mid Atlantic PG team at the WWBA in Jupiter as Stephen.

It is nice to know who the members are. There are thousands of athletes that are PG members and to have an opportunity to say Congradulations to bbmama and her son Brett Rossi on the NLI to Barry University is great.

Just kicking it up to the top of the page again.

- Whoever said a walk was as good as a hit, couldn't hit.

Sorry, I forgot to mention my sons.

Andy Ford - played in the Cincinnati Reds organization. Now a National Supervisor for Perfect Game.

Ben Ford - Pitched in the Big Leagues for both the New York Yankees and the Arizona Diamondbacks. Last year with Brewers AAA club in Indianapolis. Going to MLB Spring Training next month.

Nick Ford - Was a basketball player and now an officer in the Nuclear Department in the US Navy.

Thanks to everyone who replied. There's still some that I know are missing. It will be fun to follow the progress of all these players of all ages.
