We love playing baseball, watching baseball, talking baseball. This game is the
great unifier -- brings all types of folks together in a safe and fun
environment with a common purpose: having fun. Some of the our best and most
loyal fans are those in the military, public service and/or jobs who in some way
change lives and saves lives.September 11 is a time we reflect on those brave, kind men and women who didn't get to see September 12, 2001. It's also a chance for us to look around and say thank you to our neighbors, whether they serve in the Armed Force, or the local Police, Fire Department, Safety -- and also the countless other folks who set their own lives, goals and dreams aside to help improve the lives of others.
It's good to have different options; have healthy debates; get involved in organizations -- what baseball and honoring those who allow us to live in a free country to enjoy sports reminds us is this: we remember and honor those who keep this community and country free. They deserve that from all of us.
With sincere gratitude,
Justin Lacche
