Big Baseball Inspiration from a Little Boy

This is hands down the most inspirational thing I have ever watched dealing with baseball. 


My friends on the Oregon State Baseball team showed me this video after they watched it. It is 13 minutes long but it is very worth it your time. This little boy Josiah has the disease progeria, which is very rare and makes him age prematurely.

His heart and passion for this game is contagious. If every person had this amount of passion about anything the world would be a much better place. If baseball players had this passion, there would be no need for performance enhancing drugs, because every player would personally want to strive to get better and not take the easy way out by using drugs. 


It is so inspiring. As showed in the video, he has touched so many peoples lives with his love for the game. He has not only inspired the people personally close to him but everyone who watches this video. He makes us not want to take things for granted. He is in a much worse position than we all are. Yet, he never complains,  all he does is want to play baseball. Anyone who loves baseball will love this video. It doesn't only want to make you better player, it makes you want to become a better person. I  not only recommend watching this but also sharing this with the ball player in your life.
