Baseball & My Old ManThis is me and my old man getting inducted into the Utah Baseball Academy Hall of Fame. Baseball was good to me, and I sometimes tend to forget that. This was a good reminder for me that I need to always be respectful of the game of baseball. Baseball led me to a lot of places. I got to travel and live all over the country because of the game of baseball. The friends, experiences, and acquaintances I made over the years are priceless.It was also cool to see how well respected my old man was by the baseball community. Every person in the place seemed to know who my father was, even coming over to shake his hand and thanking him for his passion and dedication to the game of baseball.As a kid my father pushed me to be good at whatever it was that I was participating in, and that if I was gonna play something then I play it right and hard. He taught me that in order to be good at any craft then I must be willing to work harder than most so that when the time comes to compete, then I will be ready to compete.These principles taught to me by my father about sports has rolled over into life. I'm thankful for my old man and baseball and the times that we shared practicing the game. Remote ProgramA.
