Baseball glove

realize now that it is not so black and white, and it frankly need not matter whether or not anyone else or their grandma finds me pretty. My fashion sense these days is more feminine, but I am still the same girl who tucked her ponytail up into her baseball cap so no one would notice a girl on the field. I’m still the girl who is mystified by makeup tutorials and has no idea what “setting powder” is. I’m still the girl who classmates taunted for wearing baggy clothes, until they needed help…

The place I wake up early for on the weekends. The place I practice three times a week. The softball field is my happy place. The dirt on the field is the only beach I want to go to. The chalk on the field is the only chalk I write with. The early mornings, the late nights all for something I love. The smell of the fresh cut grass, so fresh just before a game. The look of the just raked infield, so fluffy and smooth.The look of the freshly painted and chalked lines, so crisp like perfection. The…

Smack! The ball rolls off my hand and lands straight on the ground. The constant replay of these motions race through my mind. Bump, set, spike, bump set spike! About a year ago, I was sitting on the bleachers cheering on the Morrison varsity volleyball girls team during their ACSC (Asia Christian Schools Conference) tournament. While I was watching I fell in love with the sport and I strived to be like one of those players someday. I played volleyball non-stop since the beginning of middle…

Who Inspires You? Many different people have favorite sports like baseball, football, basketball, soccer, etc. and everyone is entitled to their own opinions. My favorite sport is basketball and the person that inspires me to do my best on and off the court is the best of all time Michael Jordan. I’ve decided to read the book, “Facing Michael Jordan,” edited by Sean Deveney with Kent McDill to learn more about my role model. Michael Jordan was as my dad would always say, the first on and off the…

The player that I think has the most team-friendly contract is Edwin Encarnacion. This last off-season he left the Blue Jays to sign with the Indians for a 3 year 60-million-dollar contract. While it is a big contract one thing that makes this unique and beneficial to the team is the Indians have a 4th year option to keep him if they wanted to and having that kind of long term flexibility is an advantage every team can use. His last 5 season with Toronto make him worth his contract. Each year he…
