Today was a good day.....it all started early in the morning as Chris(GM/Coach), Corwin(Miami Dolphins Chaplain/AIA Fire Discipler), Miles(Asst. Coach), John(Intern/Asst. to the GM) and myself met with about 100 youth from a large Church in Anchorage. We arrived at Anchorage Baptist Temple and Chris and Corwin spoke to the youth there in attendance. They both did a good job and relayed to them their testimony and what it means to be consistent with their walk with God.
We then stayed over and listened to Franklin Graham speak. The Church was packed and it was a good service.
After the service we headed to the stadium and Corwin met with the entire team for about 30 minutes.
We then prepared for our game and picked up a big 2-0 win over the second place Oilers. It was a good day.
We have a DH tomorrow(Monday) starting at 4pm. It will be a big test for our pitching staff and hopefully we can meet the challenge.
Less than two weeks remain and I talked with our team tonight about meeting the "grind" head-on. I really hope the guys can pull it together for the last few days and stay strong. They all have had a long year, starting back in August when we all started conditioning, weights and fall practice at our respective schools. The "year" will end August 1 and we will all head back to our schools in mid-August to start it all over again. Baseball is truly a marathon season. It is like no other sport.
