Opening Day for Littleton HS Tigers Baseball. Go Tigers!

Another great addition to the Art of Baseball series with Mark Brooks.

Congratulations to Atlanta Braves rookie Evan Gattis and his proud dad on the occasion of his first hit in Major League Baseball on Wed. 4/3/13 which was also a solo home run AND the only time an MLB player has homered off of Roy Halliday in their debut! What a way to make an entrance.

GattisDad

Even more special is that his dad was being interviewed for Braves Baseball TV at the very moment the hit occurred and you can see the unrestrained joy and pride he has. Check it out:

Can’t think of a more special moment in life than that!

The 10 Commandments of Baseball

1. Nobody ever became a ballplayer by walking after a ball

2. You will never become a .300 hitter unless you take the
bat off your shoulder.

3. An outfielder who throws back of a runner is locking
the barn after the horse is stolen.

4. Keep your head up and you may not have to hold it down.

5. When you start to slide, S-L-I-D-E. He who changes
his mind may have to change a good leg for a bad one.

6. Do not alibi on bad hops. Anybody can field the good ones.

7. Always run them out. You can never tell.

8. Do not quit.

9. Do not find too much fault with the umpires.
You cannot expect them to be as perfect as you are.

10. A pitcher who hasn’t got control, hasn’t got anything.
