Proud dad. Reed walked down the aisle this morning and gave his heart to Christ. So excited for his decision as he begins his walk with the Lord. Biggest win we could ever have, knowing I get to spend Eternal life with my kids in heaven.

Tatis has one job, to hit. His job is not to make it easy on the pitcher . You don’t like him hitting a grand slam on a 3-0 count, throw a strike early in the count.
Fernando Tatis Jr. smacked a grand slam on a 3-0 count with a big lead, leading to criticism from both managers.
What do you think about this unwritten rule in baseball?
