"you people are guests in my corn"

Field of Dreams was an inspirational movie made it 1989, a movie that changed my life. Baseball changed my life. Back in the 6th grade I moved from Utah to Minnesota, this transition was hard for me because I felt alone, with no one to turn to. That is when I was introduced to the magic of baseball. The Minnesota Twins were our hometown heroes and even though they failed to impress, on multiple occasions, they never let me down. Every day for 7 months they showed up to the plate, and played with passion and hope. 9th grade was another turn of events for me when I moved back to Utah, again I felt alone and turned to the one thing I knew I could count on. Baseball.

I have pursued a career path in baseball working for the Los Angeles Dodgers minor league team, the Ogden Raptors. For the past 5 years I have dedicated the months of March to October to the game. From spring training, to opening night, to trade deadlines, to post season and to the final pitch I have followed it faithfully. I am aware not everyone is a "die-hard" like myself and that is the reasoning behind this blog. To enlightened the disheartened. This game will change your life. I guarantee. It changed mine and I will never be the same again.
