Redman's Parents

If you haven’t had a chance to read this story from the Miami Herald about Mark Redman and his parent’s battle to live (both have life-threatening diseases), check it out. It’s a quite touching story. People always have more going on in their lives that most people know about—baseball players included.

I particularly loved this line: “So Redman asked Royals manager Buddy Bell if he could shake up the rotation, letting the left-hander start on Sunday against the Mariners so his parents could watch on television. Bell obliged. Quietly.”
