In 2014 I became a Pittsburgh Pirates fan. I chose the Pirates because I thought they had the most beautiful baseball stadium and I mean come on, Roberto Clemente played for them. I loved learning about players backgrounds and their stats. Soon, I began to feel apart of that team. I felt akined. Furthermore, I plan to further my academic career rather than my athletic one. I am intrigued with writing and watching games. I believe that my calling is to become a sports writer or broadcaster, to be able to pursue my passion with sports. By becoming involved with sports I hope to reach out to kids by being able to make the game fun to watch. I remember seeing a video of the great announcer Dave Neihaus call the 1995 ALDS between the Seattle Mariners and the New York Yankees. The series was tied 2-2 in a winner-take-all game and the Mariners had their backs against the wall when they were down by a run in the bottom of the eleventh. When Edgar Martinez scored Junior from first to win the game the reaction from both the crowd and Dave were impeccable. I want to call a game with that much intensity and that much
