There are some young dads out there that are signing up to coach their kids in various sports. You know, it is important to make sure the person in charge of coaching your kid is not going to teach your kid bad habits. But what you young dads need to understand is that Howe’s Zeb Montgomery was the winning pitcher in game two, when you sign up to coach your kid, you end up having collecting seven strikeouts in 3.2 innings.

But I did get to have a moment with my boys after the game where I reminded them that I loved them.
