“Jeter banned, baseballs integrity in doubt.”
What I wanted to tell was my version of what a worst case scenario
for baseball would be. All my life I have been a die hard Yankee fan even
though I live in New England. Growing up baseball was always a special game to
me. It’s what my friends and I would talk about, we were all on the same team
that my friend’s dad and my own dad would coach; It connected us as a
community. To me growing up in the heart of the steroid era has taken its toll
on the game. With players coming out almost by the day the sport has taken a
huge hit for me. I always have said that if it ever came out the Derek Jeter
did PEDs then I would drop the sport all together. Jeter has been my baseball
idol growing up, he has always represented the right way to play the game. This
“story” that I wrote proves that in six simple words baseball a game that I
have loved for so long can come crashing down.
