I Am The Oldest Out Of 4 Siblings

I was born in Independence, MO on November 14, 1999. I was born into a sports family. My great grandpa and grandpa started teaching me baseball as soon as I could hold one. My great grandma and grandpa babysat me while my Mom was at work. He would sit on the floor and roll the ball to me. When it got warmer, we would go outside and play on his deck. I have loved baseball ever since. Sports have always been my passion. I play baseball and basketball. I started playing basketball my freshman year of high school and started playing baseball as soon as I was ready. There was never a time in my life where I wanted to stop playing sports, never once. I have never had a coach that has made me want to quit playing. If I had a coach that hated me, I paid attention to myself and didn’t let him get to my head about playing the game. I am going to try so hard to go as far as possible with baseball. I want to play baseball for the rest of my life. It’s what I’ve wanted to do since I was in middle school. I’ve known what I wanted to do with my life for the longest time. Sports are “my everything” and

Ever since I could remember, I have always had a great interest and love for the game of baseball. As a kid, I would spend countless hours in the backyard with my grandfather, or even by myself, tossing, hitting and fielding a baseball. When I wasn't in the yard pretending to be Nomar Garciaparra I would watch the Boston Red Sox games on TV with my Grandfather.  Even in my early adolescence, as impatient as most are, I had the patience to sit there and watch the Sox.With my eyes glued to the screen with a look of anticipation fixed on my face ready to mimic my grandfather with the excitement of a home run hit or the frustration of Mo-Vaughn striking out. Call me crazy, but I was addicted, even as a young boy, to Boston Red Sox baseball.

I have been playing baseball my whole life, ever since I was three. I admire this game with all of my heart, and I will never give it up.

I play baseball to keep me in shape, have fun, always learn more, and hopefully one day to play it for a career. I have been playing baseball since I was three years old. I began playing T-ball with a youth sports program known as Upward. Throughout my childhood, I always played up an age group because of my high skill level. When I was about eight years old, I met Brian McCann’s dad.

Baseball has been one of Americas favorite sports ever since it was created. As Babe Ruth once said, “Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the world.” Through time though other sports started to emerge such as soccer, football, and basketball, but America never had quite the passion towards them that they had with baseball. It is rare to find someone that does not like baseball because of how long the sport has been around. It is reasonable to believe that baseball is the greatest sport out there. Baseball is a one of a kind sport because it has a great history, one can go to college in the four different areas it offers, such as hitting, pitching, defending, base running, and finally one must be mentally tough to play it.

More than just an interest, baseball is a feeling deep in your chest. Baseball is roasting in the afternoon sun at a Sunday game or the smell of fresh popcorn wafting up to the nosebleed seats right behind home base. It’s the feeling of the ball landing right into my mitt during

I have been playing baseball on and off sense I was 7 up until my junior year of high school and I enjoy attainting and watching Baseball games has a hobby.

Since I can remember, I was in love with game of baseball. I believe that when I was a kid, baseball taught me how to be passionate. I remember always impatiently waiting to play catch with my Dad or play wiffleball with my brother. I believe baseball has taught me more than just passion but it has also taught me a number of life lessons and has also shaped who I am as a person today.

Baseball always seemed rather natural to me. With my dad being a basketball coach, it honestly was my mother’s doing that picked up a glove and ball. It probably was because her side of the family seemed to compile an interesting set of baseball junkies, her even playing for Team USA Softball one summer, and my god-father (her brother) garnering tons of scholarship offers and major league try-outs for his work on the mound. Baseball just was in me. Something that was organic, fun, and exhilarating. For the most part, I excelled from the start. However, just as baseball played an innocent childhood role in my life, it also presented me with one of the biggest life lessons that I have experienced.

I’ve been playing baseball since I was three years old! When I was about six or seven I fell in love with the most beautiful game on the planet. In school when I don't understand something mathematically or really any subject I try to relate it to baseball in any way, shape, or form because baseball is the thing I understand the most.

“There are three types of baseball players: those who make it happen, those who watch it happen, and those who wonder what happens”- Tommy Lasorda. My relationship to a sport has to be baseball. I have a desire when they run to the bases, sliding, and making home runs. I also like when they pitch, and the bat hits the ball where it goes out of the park. Even though I think that they are overpaid.

Baseball is a fun, exciting, and cheerful game. I love how I feel at home when I walk onto the field. I always play the same position,second base,it is my favorite position to play.I love when the ball is hit to me and I can scoop it up and throw it to first.When we get three outs, we go to bat and I hit pretty good most of the time.

¨ Baseball is 90% mental while the other half is Physical.¨- Yogi berra. Baseball is my favorite and number one sport. I have played baseball my whole life and know how important my position is. I played for mountain range summer ball and a league called Thornton baseball association. We call it TBA for short but TBA compared to mountain range is more complicated than TBA. Ever since I took that leap from TBA to Mountain Range was a big step it improved everything that I struggled with running the track now is way easier.

I come from a four-person family. My mom and dad have always been in my life therefore they are the people who raised me. After seeing my parents have a successful marriage, it has influenced me to want the same thing in life and having my first marriage be my last. I have an older sister who is 23. While growing up, me and my sister had a very close relationship. As we grew up, we started to drift apart. I learned a lot from being the youngest child. While being 3 years younger than my sister Taylor, watching her grow up and deal with situations taught me many personal life lessons. Watching her grow up taught me the good and bad things in life and helped me follow the right path. While going through school, I already knew what to expect when it came to the class description and the teacher just by having my sister go through it just a couple years before me. Even though being the younger sister, my whole life is all I know, I couldn’t imagine

I love baseball! My Mom told me that when I was 3 my Dad signed me up for peewee soccer. I hated soccer and cried at every game. After soccer ened my Mom said that I asked to play the game where there is the ball and the stick. I didn’t even know that the stick was called a bat. My parents signed me up for peewee baseball and I was hooked. I have been
