ambitious five year old, and ready to learn how to play baseball. My little brother and I are five and a half years apart in age. We have a good relationship, but we still fight and bicker sometimes. He can have a short temper sometimes, but the more time we spend together the closer we become. A couple of years later my little brother asked, " will you teach me how to play baseball?" So I did, and the next day we went to the baseball field where the grass is green and smells freshly cut.…
The Sandlot is a baseball movie about friendship and sticking together when someone gets in a “pickle.” It’s summer time in 1962 in the California, which is “the same summer Dodger Maury Wills would break the stolen bases record.” Our main character, Scotty Smalls just moved to the valley two weeks before school gets out for summer, and like all new kids he is afraid to make new friends. While he is unpacking he sees a boy with his baseball glove walking across the street, so that night he asks…

Did you know that math is in baseball? Math is everywhere! The pitching speed, how far the ball goes, and so much more is math. Most people don’t realize it until they keep stats or write about it. Baseball is one of the top sports with the most math. I know a lot about baseball. The equipment you need to play is a bat, ball, and a helmet for yourself. You still need bases, foul lines, and other players to play with. There is 9 players on the field, plus the one batter. Every player has a…
Gone, 8-7. The day was beautiful, and you knew it was a baseball day. Two teams were going to go out there play their hardest until they had nothing left, especially me. I wanted to show everyone everyday what I was made of and what I had to show for it. Southwest Little League baseball field had such a nice field that it had felt like second home when it came to All Star games. I was so nervous that sweating so much it was like I was a cold glass of water sitting outside on a hot summer day.…
Step one of the chain involves a mix of biomechanics and physics. The player has more strength to lift, carry, and move baseball bat. The ease of the baseball bat operations for the player on anabolic steroids results in the faster swing because it becomes easier for him to do that. It can be compared with the tossing of a lightweight Nerf ball between a five-year-old child and and adult. The adult has more power so that he will throw the ball further and will not feel the weight of it in his…
Now there is another thing that people bring up. How come the NFL just fines people for things like this and making these mistakes and the MLB just ban them for life.

Some players were fined over one million dollars for using PEDs, but on the other hand players in the MLB get suspensions. Like Dee Gordon got a…
An accomplishment I had in my past was only have 5 loses on entire season of baseball last year. In years past we had been very bad. We worked our tails of every practice and during lifting we came back every year better than the last. Last year was so special because it was our last year together, we had been together for 5 years through thick and thin and in the past year we really got it together. I wasn't easy but we did it. It really shows when we slaughter teams who used to cream us,…
Baseball has taught me more life lessons than I could ever imagine. Baseball is one of the most challenging games due to the fact it is a sport of failure. How can one fail seven out of ten times and still be considered exceptional? A three out of ten in most applications of life is very poor, however in baseball, succeeding three times out of ten is considered excellent. However, one still manages to fail seven times! Baseball is a sport rigged for failure as well as a humbling sport, that…
