Summer League

The year was 1987 in midstate North Carolina. School had released for the summer, and the summer league baseball program was about to begin. This summer would be different than the previous years of youth baseball. This league was for serious players with ambitions in baseball.Witness the adventures of a "e;last minute"e; coach, an all-star third baseman, and a brokenhearted thirteen-year-old boy stepping onto a baseball diamond for the first time. That summer, I witnessed God's Providence at work and completely overlooked what, I believe, our team had accomplished until I was in my late forties. Enjoy the story of joy and overcoming and the fact that with God, all things are possible.
