Thank you Baseball.

First I want to thank my parents for everything. From driving me to practice to long weekends out of state they have went above and beyond for me. The amount of time, money, and energy they have sacrificed for me is more than I could ever ask for. No part of this journey would be possible without them.

Second I want to give a special shout out to my dad. From going to the cages after a bad game or just being there for me during my highs and lows is something I’ll always be thankful for. You will always be my greatest coach, role model, and father I could ever ask for. I wouldn’t trade you for the world.

To my teammates, Throughout the years I’ve gained endless amount of friendships, memories, and brotherhoods that I cannot ever thank you enough for. From starting in tee ball with my best friends to meeting new friends from all over the state I will always be thankful.

To my coaches, the hard fought lessons and adversity comes with this sport I was able to learn from my coaches. From breaking my arms during tryouts and having @tpetts5 take a chance on me to playing for Foutch with D Lo and J Lo and winning tournaments. Playing for many coaches and teams have taught me different lessons and also showed me that family isn’t always by blood.

Putting this into words is very difficult and hard to do. This is one of the hardest goodbyes I’ve ever had to make. I wouldn’t have changed this for anything. #5 out.
