## Caption

I remember the nights I couldn’t sleep.
Not because I was hurt…but because I was lost.
When baseball ended, fear crept in. The questions, the doubt, the silence from the people I thought would cheer me on.

But I prayed through it. I worked through it.
And I didn’t let fear keep me from chasing something greater.

Today I walked into Truist Park not as a player…
…but as a broadcaster covering the 2025 Home Run Derby for ESPN.
Still learning. Still growing. Still relentless.

This walk means more than a job.
It’s a reminder: God doesn’t waste your uncertainty. He builds you through it.
