On a day like today it’s hard not to get emotional. These last four years have been the hardest of all. Many don’t know the sacrifices we make to keep both feet on the ground. The many moments of perseverance, weakness, and adversity alter our chains daily.  From the early morning construction fresh out of shoulder surgery, and the long nights in transit from the facility to get home, to battling waves while lobster fishing in the Atlantic; these are some of things we do in life to stay afloat to pursue a bigger dream. To paint the picture we had as little kids chasing the clouds.
I've been training for four years to put the leaf back over my chest. I cannot express in words what it means to share this with some of the best people I’ll ever know.  We’re heading back to the Pan American Olympics baby! Through my highs and lows, I can’t say I didn’t have any help. There are many people that have walked into my life and shaped the person I am today. Those people have pushed me to keep fighting the good fight. The amount of love I have for them will forever be branded on my heart (you know who you are). I want to thank Baseball Canada for this opportunity, and the chance to capture another gold medal for Canada. Starkey, the things you’ve done for me continue to change my life for the better. To the Quebec Capitales, I am so grateful to you for putting me back in uniform and welcoming me onto your team and into your family. Much love to all. baseballcanada starkeycares capitalesquebec  #Hear&Now #LimaPeru2019 #GMG #Podiumbound #🍁
