This baseball has been in his life ever since he was born and he grew a very special relationship with that certain baseball. Baseball helped him through so much in South Africa, due to the very poor lifestyle that he had to live in. He turned to baseball when ever he had a bad day or needed to get away from all the bad in that was in his life and do something that he loves to do.

“Yeah! I know that is just wonderful. I am so so excited for you to have the ability to maybe be able to play,” Travis answered.
