a common saying “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” Special or sentimental things are not always shiny and new. One thing that is special to me is my grandpa’s toy chest. It is special to me because it has his old baseball glove‚ his toy top and his football in it. Grandpa’s baseball glove is important to me because it was the only one he ever owned. His fathered fashioned the leather himself. My grandpa used that glove all his life and never bought a new one. The glove was passed down to my father

Baseball has been apart of my life since I was 3 years old. I love baseball so much that I want to train younger kids and show them better baseball mechanics.

Basically I just want everybody to make it. Baseball is basically my life. If I could play baseball forever I would. I play baseball in college

Baseball Change The baseball bag laying there all alone on a perfect day. With nobody to play catch or to hit. There I am thinking its just a hobby‚ passing up all the moments I could have practiced. All the missed opportunities I missed. I wish I could take it back. Now I have realized its more than just a hobby its my passion. I remember as a kid I was not so great at baseball.

Effect in Professional Baseball In past twenty years‚ steroids have become a huge problem in major league baseball. Many players were using them because they assumed there was no chance in being caught. In the last five years the league has decided to crack down on testing and really try to clean up baseball. A large number of players have tested positive‚ and the punishment is much worse than in past years. Steroids are harmful to the human body‚ they have changed baseball‚ and ruined player’s

In the Summer of 2017‚ I received a phone call that was full of excitement. Up to this point it was high school baseball season and I was playing baseball for Senior. Baseball is my favorite sport‚ so I dedicate a lot of time practicing and working out to get ready for the season. It was midway through the season when the big doubleheader with our crosstown rival Hempstead‚ approached. We ended up sweeping the mustangs which gave us the outright of the city championship.

Comparing and Contrasting Baseball Players of Different I believe that an individual cannot compare between baseball players of different Era’s. The reason why I say this is because the game has changed dramatically. Over the years American League has allowed designated hitters since 1973‚ while the National League hasn’t.

Baseball is the best thing that has ever happened for my life. When I was younger I always played impact football ‚ but was never really interested in doing anything else. Then‚ I was introduced to baseball and immediately fell in love with it‚ and I still love it to this day. Everyone struggles in this sport more than any other sport. You fail more than you succeed and that’s how baseball goes for everyone. I had struggled with hitting and fielding over the summer and that hurt my mental part

Why do Certain Pitches in Baseball Curve? Scientifically‚ it seems humanly impossible to hit a 95 mile-per-hour straight fastball‚ but we see the professionals do it all the time!

And remember‚ it is not always a straight fastball shooting out of the pitcher’s hand. Sometimes pitchers hurl in an off-speed pitch with movement to throw the hitters off their

The girl softball team had loaded first although they got put out they still was there for us. Team leader in the front of the bus and the rest filled in. The ride to the field was quite. No one talked at all during the trip to the baseball field. The bus was the place to prepare yourself. What I mean by that is the bus was for you to get your mind forced on the game of baseball. The bus was not the time to think about what you going to eat for
