Essay title: My Life

To be given the chance to play little league was one of the greatest times of

my life. I played little league for four years, and every year I made the all-star

team. My best friend and I played on every regular season team and every

all-star team together. The final game of our career was unforgettable.

It had been 4 years of great enjoyment with my best friend, Cody Smith. We

always clowned around in practice, but when the game would start we had a

high intensity. Cody would pitch, and I would play second base. When he

wasn't pitching, I would, and he would play third base. We were the top

players in little league, or so we thought.

Our all-star team had made it to the championship of our state tournament.

Before our team took the field our coach John Zamouski gave us a talk. He

said, "Well men, we've came a long way. Today's the day we've all

practiced so hard for, but I want to have fun with it. Lets treat this like every

other game we have won. You're all winners, win or lose. I want you all to

know that I feel privileged to have coached such a fine bunch of men. So lets

go out and play this game as hard as you can. What do you say, lets go have

together "WIN."

As I ran on to that field I recalled all the practicing I had done, and I knew I

owed most of it to my father. He started me throwing and hitting when I was

about four-years-old. As my passion grew more and more I wanted to go

practice all the time. So I would ask my father to practice with me. Even

though my father was tired or in the middle of a good TV show he would

practice with me. I remembered my father sitting on an old milk crate while I

pitched to him. This made me chuckle a little because I would throw a low

wild pitch on accident that would hit him in the legs, but he kept positive.

Cody was pitching a 3 hitter and I was playing well too. The score kept going

back and forth. There were a lot of errors because the field was all dirt and

felt like concrete, the ball was taking bounces I had never seen before. The

final inning came around and we were down by 1 run with 2 outs when I

came to bat. There was no one on base and
