I live for this game I love so much.

I live for the feel of the bat between my hand.

I live for the sweet spot and turning two up the middle.

I live for the those dying quails and the ground balls with eyes.

I live for one more at bat, one more hit.

I live for nine more innings

I live for one more game
Looking back at this year WBC (World Baseball Classic) i can only have hope for years to come. Although i may be considered a disappointment for U.S fans, i feel that this tournement is doing something bigger for the game of baseball. I feel that it is opening up new horizons for baseball to be played on a large scale around the world. It allows fans like myself to see how the game is played in countries like Japan, Korea, Cuba, and the Dominica Republic. It opens our eyes a shows us that this game doesn't just have one way to be played correctly. It is like a puzzle, where different strategies and different concept fit together to form a successful ball club.
