Mickey still pursuing his dream, joined a local baseball club called The Whiz Kidz. In his first game with the Whiz Kidz Mickey hit 3 homeruns.

Unfortunately, the school also heard about his performance and about how he accepted the money, so the school said he couldn’t continue to play high school sports if he didn’t return the money.

“This has got to be a freshman game attendance record,” my teammates said. Our coach was even astonished, “I have never seen this building so packed.” I immediately stopped the drill I was doing and just watched.

We have built a bond that can never be broken, that bond can only help with our future success. The goal for every high school baseball team is to win the state championship.

The softball game is made into a family day, so all of the police officers family’s get together and do a BBQ, rent a jumpy for the kids, and make t-shirts for all the police officers to wear. It’s a sloppy game because they don’t ever practice but that’s exactly what makes it more enjoyable. The super bowl game weekend is held in Reno each year and it’s a handful of police officers from the department who get together and rent a huge hotel room and just hangout and enjoy each other’s company outside of the department. One thing which he loves about his department is that they’re very team and family oriented which means a lot to him.
Jackie Robinson In my opinion I think a hero is a person that changes lives forever. My hero is Jackie Robinson because he is the first African American baseball player, first African American to win NL MVP, and the first African American to have his number retired.

Babe Ruth was the greatest baseball player who ever lived for his stats he put up and how many people he inspired in his game. I have been playing baseball since I was three years old, ever since I could pick up a baseball. It was the game that my family pushed for me to play when I was younger and I fell in love with it more and more each time I picked up a baseball, of course it took long for me to actually get good
I always dreamed of celebrating a state tournament berth with my teammates, and the summer of 2013 I got to do that. But I had no clue what was about to happen that summer. The state tournament consisted of mostly metro teams whose population ranged from 20,000 to 200,000. We were the town of 3,000 heading into the state tournament just hoping we wouldn’t take last. I’ll never forget the time my baseball team won state because it made me realize that even though we are a very trivial town, we can still do very immense things.
