When I got back to the house from Joyce’s, and after I had what’s become my regular morning swim without the kids around to distract me from getting a good workout, I went to Sandy’s office and knocked on the doorframe. “Hunter!,” she said, looking up. “What brings you here?” I don’t know why she … Continue reading Should Matteo Go Back to School?

A Day in the Park (last part)
I took the boys on Saturday to watch me and Lucas play ball with Chuy’s team, Los Cervezeros…and have a day out in the park. Meanwhile, the kids got a soccer game going; Jacob joined in, and took a bad slip and fall in the grass that dislocated his shoulder. Lucky for everyone, one of … Continue reading A Day in the Park (last part)
A Day in the Park (part 2)
While me and Lucas were playing baseball with Chuy's team last Saturday afternoon, since there was a bunch of Mexican kids hanging out in the park, a soccer game developed. It was an all-ages kinda game: there were a few kids Jacob’s age and Eric was playing as well as Abelito. I was involved in … Continue reading A Day in the Park (part 2)
A Day in the Park (part 1)
We celebrated the reopening of the state by having a day in the park, me, Lucas and the boys. It wasn’t just any day in the park, though…me and Lucas were also playing Lucas’ first game with Chuy’s team, Los Cervezeros. The team’s 2nd baseman moved away to Texas, since he couldn’t stand the lockdowns … Continue reading A Day in the Park (part 1)
Reopening and the Boys
I just told y’all that Cody’s playing little league (he’s killing it, too.) Y’all might be wondering why it is that Jacob isn’t. The answer is Maya, who’s still being super careful about the boys. I’m not sure what she’s waiting for, but I reckon it seemed a little too soon to get Jacob involved … Continue reading Reopening and the Boys
Baseball Pupils Update
It’s been a while since I told you anything about my other pupils. Well…my other pupil. I stopped working with Noah a few months ago. His heart just wasn’t in it, and there’s no sense in spending money on a baseball tutor for your kid when your kid doesn’t care that much about playing ball. … Continue reading Baseball Pupils Update
Maya Makes Me an Offer
Last Thursday, the day after the riot at the Capitol, Maya told me at breakfast that she wanted to see me in her office. She didn’t tell me why, and I was a pretty nervous that I was in trouble somehow. Maya’s office is on the first floor of the house, but on the opposite … Continue reading Maya Makes Me an Offer
#baseballboy is Born (last part)
My day after I blew up Maya Bedrossian’s Facebook page because of how I looked on TV in boardshorts was starting to feel endless when, after I’d finished with Jacob and Matteo, I headed back into the pool house to change. I looked at the time: it was 4:45 and the 4th game of the … Continue reading #baseballboy is Born (last part)
#baseballboy is Born (part 3)
Following my meeting with Sandy and Maya Bedrossian the afternoon after I got famous on Facebook, I went outside, where Jacob was already waiting for me. So were Ethan and the crew…although I didn’t know why they were filming on Thursdays when they usually did that earlier in the week. “We’ll get some coverage of … Continue reading #baseballboy is Born (part 3)
#baseballboy is Born (part 2)
The afternoon after my appearing shirtless on At Home with Maya blew up my boss’ Facebook page, I was early for the meeting Sandy called me in for that morning. Belen opened the side door to let me into the house, and, I’m probably imagining it, but I think she gave me a look like … Continue reading #baseballboy is Born (part 2)
