So I actually hit the ball… miracles never cease!  And believe me, I was as shocked as anyone.  In fact, I never expected to make contact so I was even more excited to remember to run in the proper direction (in Beepball, if you hit to the right side of the field, you run to third base and vice versa).  Our very own Steve “The Slugger” Jerve played this morning too and he also had a great hit.  Go Channel 8!

Before the start of the game, a moment of silence was held to honor our friend and colleague, John Winter.  John was a long-time supporter of Tampa’s Lighthouse for the Blind.  I am positive he was one of our “angels in the outfield.”

I want to say a big thank you to Coach Steve Otto who invited me to play and made me feel so welcome.  It was a pleasure to meet all of the athletes and fans, what a great morning we had together!
