And he looked at my parents and said, I don't know how your baby boy is alive because the placenta is barely attached. All of these issues. It's the greatest miracle that I've ever seen.
And I was malnourished, but I did make up for it pretty quickly. How old was your mom when you were born? Oh my goodness. It's probably closer to 40. No, no, no. Probably a little bit younger than that, but she wasn't older. I was a baby of five, so probably around 35 maybe. Okay, okay.

Yes. And I've also fell in love with sports at a very early age. My whole family, insanely competitive. Like, you would love them. They're awesome people.

But it's just our whole family's that way.

And Coach Langley gathers us together before we take the field for the first inning. He says, okay, guys, Now it doesn't matter whether you win or lose. It's only about having fun.
