I love watching baseball. Not into keeping track of stats or the like; I love watching – simple as that. My nephews, especially Matthew, have all played baseball. We watched from T-ball through high school for the past 26 years and are still watching, so this story instantly grabbed me. It’s from NBC’s Nightly News’ – ‘Making a Difference’ segment.
It features Lucas Taylor who started an organization, 4 Love of the Game, several years ago to find a way to encourage young Native kids to pursue college. Taylor is a member of the Muscogee Creek nation out of Oklahoma.
I admire people like Lucas Taylor -truly.

This is a great story and a fabulous organization. Thanks for posting the video, Wordsmith.
Isn’t it though, Tara? I was mightily impressed – mightily. And it being baseball, I figured you’d stop by. (Tee-hee) 8)
Yes, I’m a bit predictable. 🙂
