This was one of my favorite moments of the season... Not just because of Daniel's homerun. But, because of his interaction with Jose after hitting it. It came at a time when Josey wasn't hitting like his "Josey Self". And yet... he never seemed panicked or stressed and no matter what, he always took time to build up his teammates. He's such a great leader! It got me thinking... One day, maybe 10 - 15 yrs from now, the Schneemann family will take a trip to Cooperstown. It'll probably be for some baseball or softball tournament that one of our grandkids will be playing in. Daniel might even be one of the coaches by then. We'll all visit the Hall of Fame and when we pass by the bust of Jose Ramirez, our grandkids will get to hear a few clubhouse stories from their dad/uncle about what it was like to play with this 5 foot 8 inch GIANT of baseball player... What he was like as a teammate & a leader. I'm sure Daniel will still be really humble, so before leaving the Hall, I'll make sure we also pass by the busts of Verlander & Scherzer & I'll let the grandkids know thier Dad/Uncle homered off both those dudes. Yeah, that will be a great day... But, that's in the future. Tomorrow its on to the ALCS. And Josey is back to his "Josey Self". Its a bad day to be a Ray! Go Guards!
