Building Character

Not just a pastime, a game that builds character and lifetime friendships. That tiny white ball; invigorating swing, smacks... backward sailing spree. A lonely mitt sits; bat has conquered once again; cheers, back pats and hugs. At age eighty-three a glorious reunion baseball memories.
