My Most Memorable Place

The following spring, the baseball season started again, but I still chose not to watch the Sox or play any baseball whatsoever, that is until they made the post season once again. I decided to pay attention and the Sox advanced to the next round, to play the Yankees once again in the ALCS. Being so heartbroken from the year before, I didn't know what to expect, and sure enough, I found myself in the same position, the Sox down three games to none in the best of a seven game series, I had no faith. My father decided to go out and surprise me with tickets to game

The most memorable thing that happened to me would have to be when I got to see my favorite sports team play, the Detroit Tigers. This was my first time ever watching them play and I was excited to see what I was about to encounter. It was a hot summer day when we went to Comerica Park, when we went to go see them play. Our seats we right on the first base line, a perfect spot for a foul ball to come my way. The Tigers were winning throughout the whole game up on the last inning Miguel Cabrera hit a walk off home run that won them the game. Going to the game was a great opportunity for me to get to see the skills and work that they put into the game. This helped me see just how important it is to work as a team and support each other on and

June 2015 I went to my favorite place in the whole world, Cedar Point. Cedar Point smells like happiness and cotton candy. Cedar Point is located in Sandusky, Ohio and is one of the top amusement parks in the United States. I have been 5 times, but my favorite trip was with my family and best friend Allie. We went to stay for a week like we always do. This time Allie and I would get to walk around the amusement park all by ourselves, that made us feel like such adults. I rode lots of roller coasters and went down many water slides. My favorite ride is Millenniun-Force. It is such a forceful ride I swear every time I ride it I lose my vision. We only rode that ride one time because after it finished Allie about thought she died. This was

My trip to St.Louis will always be my favorite.Everything I got to see was magnificent.Breathtaking views,and amazingly nice people to greet with.Everyone was nice in St.Louis, which was surprising. I wish I could go back and relive my trip.The St.Louis arch was so tall i couldn't look up because of the sun.We played a bunch of games outside the arch.MY trip to St. Louis will be

Going to a game in Fenway is a smorgasbord of delightful feelings. Even the walk up to the ballpark is some thing to behold. Walking with hundreds of passionate fans, all decked out in their red sox T-shirts, jerseys, and of coarse that iconic navy hat with the red B on it. I feel like I belong there with this organized group of strangers. There is such a since of family as I see people from the “T” car I was on and chatted with. A few hundred yards ahead I could hear a “Lets Go Red Sox” chant as people around me began to join in

It was Wednesday, November 2nd, 2016 when the cubs won the world series. Now to be honest with you I’m not a big baseball fan. Ok, i'm not a big sports fan at all. For some reason this year I got really into baseball making me and my family extremely nervous for this game but they did it. The Chicago cubs won the 2016 world series. Jumping ahead to Friday, November 4, 2016, I set my alarm to wake me up at 4 a.m. I was not ready for the crazy day that was ahead of me. I had somehow managed to get up at 4 considering I went to bed at 1 a.m that night. The train was at 5 so it gave us about 45 minutes to get ready and go to the train station. Once we got to the station, along with all the other very excited cubs fans, we sat down and waited for the train

My special place is a campsite called Day Maker 23 located on a small island on Namaken Lake in Voyageurs National Park. Voyageurs National Park is located in Orr Minnesota just south of the Canadian border. It is also located on the Eastern edge of the Canadian Shield. An exposed area of Precambrian stone.

Earlier this year when I got my contract I was not only excited to see my name on the clubhouse wall but just to meet the Chicago Cubs, my team. I got walked into Wrigley field and it felt just like home. I took a couple steps in and just was dumbfounded when I saw that

There's one memory in particular that I remember most. I was 11 years old living in Richmond, Virginia and my baseball travel team the Richmond Rapids were traveling to the Outer Banks in North Carolina for a Labor Day weekend Tournament. The Outer Banks Classic was the the biggest tournament for 12u players in the Atlantic Region. We were the first team from our region to be invited to the tournament. None of us knew what to expect when we got there. But after an 8 hour car drive and tons of car time my expectations were exceeded when I saw where we would be playing.

I have transferred from one field to another, leaving memories behind every 2 years but now I have a place I can call home, and that is the Mariners baseball field. I have had plenty of other memories like winning the Minors championship my very first year and taking second my second year of baseball in majors. I took second my third year in Babe Ruth but now I realize I don’t need to leave those memories behind, I can fulfill what I have learn and look at how much better I have gotten and how much better of a person it has made me. I can look back on my past families and realize no matter what when how old or what league you play for you always have a family watching you, even if you barely or don’t even know them. When I first walked upon the field at 13 years old, i felt alone and wasn't sure i could do what everyone else was able to do like throwing from shortstop to first which was about 85 to 130 feet. From the rubber on the pitching mound to home plae its about 60 feet. I was young, but i didnt understand that i was going to get stronger and better. The smell was astonishing and the breeze was so clean. The field was nicely wrapped with grass around the infield and the infield was perfectly graded with dirt on top of the hard clay. I was so nervous when i first got in the but the players were so nice. My cousins told me not to be nervous because Baseball is something fun and something you could

Everybody has memories they will never forget. The first of mine is playing baseball when I was six years old. My dad had always played sports and I wanted to follow in his footsteps. Baseball was my dream at a young age and it all started with the Tigers. I’ll always remember stepping onto the field for the first time and feeling the excitement rush through me. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to be the team’s starting catcher. I liked the feeling of being in command behind the plate and felt like I had some sort of control over the game. I don’t remember a whole lot about the first game, but I do remember my first hit. I can tell you that I’ve never felt so excited in my life as I connected with the ball and began running to first base. I knew that made my dad extremely happy.

Whenever I imagine a memorable place, I think of a softball diamond. When I step out on the white, chalky field, I start to remember the excitement I felt rising in my body. I can hear the roaring of the crowd, the cheering of my teammates and the yelling of my coaches. The smells of summer fun, bug spray and concession foods rounds out my most memorable place.

As I sit here, on the hood of my car looking out into the vast field I think to myself, why this place? Out of all the places that mean so much to me, why does this place stand out the most? Everyone has that one spot that is special to him or her for various reasons whether it be a memory, experience, how it makes them feel, etc. For me, my favorite place encompasses all my senses bringing them to an all time high filling me with an overwhelming indescribable feeling. It’s my sanctuary, a safe place, but above all a place to clear my mind and getaway from reality. There aren’t enough captivating words to describe the beauty of this place. In the winter, the vast field covered in a blanket of untouched glimmering snow surrounded by bare

It is no doubt about it that everyone has somewhere that they have adapted to long enough to call it there home! A place they can relax and really be their selves, for some it may have been their grandparents house, aunties house or wherever they felt comfortable. Well I of course felt comfortable in my own home, a four bedroom house on the west side of North Miami. My home in Miami was perfect I had my own room, I was very comfortable there, and it was a place to get away from the world.

As a child, people will always remember certain destinations that stick with them that made a good impression. I have a place that not only made a good impression, it changed me. It made me think off all the things in life people take for granted; places, people, activates. This place brought all though special things in life to one place where I can enjoy them all at the same time. The Oregon coast. Traveling there, as a kid was always special. Waking up early in the morning and driving the long trip there, going through forests, valleys, and cities.
