The Fall Classic
If you haven’t been able to tell from previous posts, I love baseball. I guess I like it for several reasons but the one that is most fascinating, is that a team is never down and out in a game. In football and basketball, which I also enjoy, you can pretty much tell when a team is beyond winning.
That’s not the case in baseball. Last night Lindsey and I were watching the National League Championship Series between the Cardinals and Astros. The Astros were up 4-2 in the 9th inning with one out away from getting to the world series. It looked like it was all in the Astros favor, until a couple of batters got on base, to which Albert Pujols knocked them in on a monster home run.
It’s never to late to come out on top in baseball. You can always come back, no matter how late in the game. I find that inspiring in my personal and professional life as well. Never give up.

Excellent relation to baseball. I never quite understood how Americans enjoyed this game. But your analogy has me thinking twice now. 🙂
