I was pretty good. i went through a slump in 7th or 8th grade and quit. Wish I never did. I would've liked to play in high school. My parents always encouraged me to quit sports for some reason.

in LL i was a superstar. i was a great pitcher with a great changeup (my dad would lift up his shirt real quick to signal for the change!) and i was a first baseman

every year we changed teams but i always got stuck on the pirates

my greatest highlights were turning 2 unassisted double plays at first and i threw a no hitter against the cardinals in the 9-10 yr old season

when i got to babe ruth 14 yr old league i kinda peaked, and the high school kids made it imposible for me to play 1B or pitch once their school season ended so i got pissed off and quit at 14

i was 1000 times better a first baseman than the jerkoff coaches son who played for St Joes High, but because he played for his HS team the coach thought he was the greatest in the world

One time, I got smacked right in the nose by a pitch. Blood everywhere. I quit after that.
