I had the opportunity to meet Natasha Watley last night at the Jackie Robinson complex. I have learned so much and competed against some great athletes at this invitational.
I am so grateful to have been selected for MLB Develops’ Elite Development Invitational this June in Vero Beach, Florida. Last year, I had the most amazing time working with the baseball staff. This year I will be doing softball and am excited to work with a new set of coaches!
Always proud of this young lady. She keeps working to be better each day. She believes in herself because that is how she is built. God holds her future & we are just spectators for all God has planned for her. Keep working granddaughter & just know supporting you is what we do
