This was a wonderful post. Well written, and I'm glad to see an article that isn't curated to two hundred and fifty words for the sake of an ADHD quick read get the vote format.
I absolutely love baseball. The World Baseball Classic is one of my favorite times as a baseball fan. Though I live in the USA I often find myself rooting for the Dominican Republic. As a child, (I was born in the eighties so keep this in mind), I read the biography of Roberto Clemente, and ever since, well, there's something to be said about overcoming adversity that moves my soul and helps me to better love those around me. This might seem ridiculous, it's just baseball, but there's something about it that's different than other sports.
Anyways, great post once again.
