My Friend's Grandson Remembered Me

After the game, my wife and I waited to speak to Zack. We caught him near the fence and I told him I had had a letter from his grandfather. I was surprised that he remembered meeting me when he was a little boy. He had come to church with his grandfather and they came into my office. Zack recalled seeing some of my special baseball cards and memorabilia. I can’t wait to tell his grandfather.

Nice Outing For My Friend's Grandson

In the ninth inning, the visiting team scored a run on a double followed by a sharp single. That made the score 8-4. To try to stop the rally, the Toros’ manager brought in my friend’s grandson. He got a ground ball out and a pop up to third for two quick outs. The third batter got a hit, putting runners on first and third. Zack got the last out by getting the batter to fly out to right field. The Toros did not score in the bottom of the ninth, but I got to see my friend’s grandson have a nice outing.

My Friend's Grandson

My friend’s grandson is a relief pitcher. He plays the outfield some, but he was not in the line up last night when my wife and I went to see the Bay Area Toros play. The team got beat 8-4, but it was a pleasant night, not too hot, and it reminded me of days gone by when I watched a lot of local baseball. We had a good time.

The Request in The Letter From My Friend

My friend wrote a real live letter in an envelope and delivered by the postman, to tell me that his grandson is playing on the Bay Area Toros. That is a baseball team in a new independent league, based in the city in which I live. He wanted me to go see the team and watch his grandson. Some requests I get are not so easy to fulfill!
