GREATEST MOMENT IN BASEBALL: When I was playing in the All-Star game and I hit a line drive to center field. I rounded first base and saw the center fielder bobble the ball so I kept on running to second base. The center fielder threw the ball to home to get my other teammate out but he ran into the catcher and the ball fell out of his glove while they both fell over. As I rounded third base I saw that the catcher didn't have the ball and I kept running home. My teammate touched the base with his hands just before my foot hit home plate.
MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT IN BASEBALL: None.... I am just way too awesome :-).
FAVORITE DREAM MOMENT IN BASEBALL:... Bottom of the 9th... Bottom of the ninth and there are two outs and we’re down by three runs with the bases loaded. The pitcher winds up, and throws strike two. The pitcher winds up again and throws the ball. Whack, I hit an out of the park grand slam home run.
