Luke's 1st game of the season and it literally snowed. The kids were freezing. Luke begged to go home. It was miserable.
But his team won 13-1. And Luke got the game ball for being the only player with two hits in the game. And they ended an inning early because 1) the kids were about to die and 2) it was a wipeout anyway. And then Dad got him Jimmy John's for dinner AND let him get salt & vinegar chips.
He came home on a high, already (almost) forgetting the torture only moments prior.
Baseball has been saved.
