Thank you, Arizona Diamondbacks, for one of the coolest troop tributes I've seen! (A deployed 22-year veteran National Guardsman's kids, ages 5 & 6, got to throw out the first pitch. And the catcher stood up and took off his mask, and it was their dad - they didn't know he'd come home. AWESOME.)
Later, Dad and the kids joined Sutt and Gracie in the booth for half an inning, and the dad was just amazingly eloquent and full of heart. What a terrific example of our wonderful fighting men and women.
baseball,
