Hats Off to Berto and Dana

To my beloved parents,

A simple thank you is not enough. You guys did everything you could to make my dreams a reality. Endless hours on the road driving me to team practice, hitting lessons, pitching lessons, and work out sessions. Dedicating your summers to let me travel across the country for showcase tournaments. To the late nights and early mornings, you both always put me and my dreams first. I will forever be grateful to you and your selflessness.

You taught me to stand tall and confident. As long as I put in the work, I could do anything I set my mind to. You taught me the sky is the limit. When I doubted myself, you were there to put me in my place and show me what I was capable of. You challenged me to always expect more from myself, elevate those around me, and never be satisfied.

You’ve never missed a game. Even if you weren’t there in person, you were following along the live streams or play-by-plays. God has blessed me with two of the most dedicated, amazing parents a kid could have. I would not be where I am today without your guidance and love. I love you guys endlessly. Thank you for being you and letting me be me.

Love always,

Maddog.
