Mark your calendars. The Chris Hammond Youth Foundation is hosting its annual golf tournament (November 5) and fund-raising auction gala (November 4) at Greystone Golf and Country Club. The Foundation's mission supports youth sports by installing lights for a field, providing uniforms and equipment, or doing whatever is needed so kids can participate in team sports. To learn more about the Foundation, check out https://www.chrishammondyouthfoundation.com/ Chris Hammond pitched fourteen seasons in the big leagues. He is profiled in Baseball in Alabama: Tales of Hardball in the Heart of Dixie, and, if you'd like to learn more about him, check out the biography I recently wrote about him: https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/233778b7

Well, I am not really close with my dad, in fact, I have never met him. He and my mom stopped seeing each other after I was born, so I am really ignorant to what fathers are. My uncle was my role model. Leave a Reply. |
