Q: How did you get involved in your sport? (When did you get involved in your sport? Why did you get involved in your sport?)

 A: I've played baseball for as long as I can remember.  I got involved because my dad and I used to walk to the baseball field that was down the street from my house to watch the little league games, and after that we would walk home and watch the Red Sox on TV. I was always fascinated by watching the players. I started by just playing catch and tee ball in the backyard with my dad.  Since then there hasn't been a spring or summer that I haven't played baseball.
