How cool!
...................Since the story of 8-year old cancer survivor Adam Bender was published in the Lexington Herald-Leader, and on www.kentucky.com, on June 1, 2008, the one-legged catcher has been invited to throw out first pitches at a Chicago White Sox game, a Cincinnati Reds game, a Houston Astros game, and has been invited to a Garth Brooks benefit in Las Vegas. He is also being profiled for a story that will air on ESPN. On Sunday June 6, 2008, Adam threw out the ceremonial first pitch to Adam Dunn of the Reds. Because of cancer, Adam Bender had his left leg amputated when he was one but that hasn’t stopped him from playing baseball for the Astros in the Southeastern Rookie League at Veterans Park.
Hot damm! Thats one cool kid.
I would buy that boy a beer! (a root beer)
Good God that makes you proud that there are people out there like this in America.
Reminds me of Jim Abbot. That guy was awsome too.
He gave me hope to go on another day. Let me clear the tears and go attack a me me me me liberal.
Kinda pisses me off when I see a kid doing this, and then I see all these able bodied adults getting disability checks.
I dont like this kid. I was a catcher all throught my high school baseball career and he looks better than I did. Damn show off. :mad:
