Most Beautiful and Respect Moments in Sports video !

I had a close friend at a rival school we played against in baseball. Our senior year, my friend fell once short of his team’s all-time record going into our final game. On his first hit, I knocked him out. He hit his second and again, on the third. At the end of the last half, we had a pretty big two-goal lead as he scored his last shot as a high school player. I called the timer and told the catcher that I would just throw the balls fast. I didn’t tell him why. As I stood on the mound, I gave my friend a meaningful nod that only baseball players would understand. On the third court, my friend hit a MONSTER homerun. As he gathered the bags, I threw my turpentine at him with a smile and shouted, “No problem!!” He pointed to me, gesturing thanks as he stepped on the plate of home rice. We won 7-1 that day, and eventually the regional championship. My friend never played organized baseball again. Months later, I learned my friend had also set the all-time RBI CONFERENCE record when he beat us. I want to think back to his last memory of his time as a player who left my friend with lifelong pride as the best player in his school. Last I heard, another player at his alma mater broke my friend’s record in 2019… 24 YEARS later. For almost a quarter of a century, my friends’ names were found at the top of long lists of players. Sure, it was a small thing in the grand scheme of the world, but it was something special to him. He still calls me every Spring during baseball season, calling me “Aido”, a pun on my nickname as a player, “First Aid”. ) and the name of the revered Greek god. , humble and grateful (Aidos). I call him “Mile”. A play on his name, and because that’s how far homerun has come…and as in, “give him a hit, and he got a MILE” 🙂 you succeed.
