Brandon works actively to do everything anyone says he can't, since the age of 4, brandon has done everything that he can to make it as a professional baseball player. That's enough talking about myself in the third person. If my memory is correct, it has always been a goal of mine to play baseball day-in and day-out as what others would consider a “job”. Consequently it occurred to me that baseball is similar to life in the sense that this beautiful game can make you feel extraordinary, while being able to humble you just as quickly. In the words of Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard: “Baseball has a way of ripping your heart out, stabbing it, putting it back in your chest, then healing itself just in time for Spring Training”.
