team that I helped to coach. It was just the second game of our season, and only an hour and a half long, but it was a representation of the backbreaking work applied by everyone involved.

However, I continued to play club baseball, as my passion for the game never faltered. The trend continued in my junior year

In “Marrying Absurd”, Joan Didion illustrates the nonsensical circus that marriage in Las Vegas is.

With just sixteen seconds left in the game and our team down by four, we had no choice but to do something special. I inbounded the ball to Jack, our small
