    How Baseball Is Like the Christian Walk!

    How baseball is like the Christian walk! By: David E. Prince, PhD ! Baseball means dealing with failure. "There is more Met than Yankee in all of us," as Roger !Angell has poignantly written.! Every person who has ever played the game of baseball has been a consistent failure. It has been more than 70 years since the Splendid Splinter, Ted Williams, finished the 1941 baseball season with a .406 batting average. Williams' failure rate of 60 percent means that he failed less often than any batter in the seven subsequent decades. In fact, only five other players in the live ball era (since 1920) have matched the success of his 60 percent failure rate. Babe Ruth, known for hitting 714 home runs, struck out 1,330 times in his Major League Baseball career. The Cy Young Award is baseball's most coveted honor for the game's best pitcher each season. !And yet the award's namesake lost 316 games as a major league pitcher.! The reality that baseball is a game of managed failure for every player, even the great ones, is one of the reasons the game imbedded so deeply in the fabric of American culture. Baseball became the national pastime because it reflected the national character -- a collective team endeavor that called consistently for individual responsibility and personal sacrifice for the greater good. John Updike noted, baseball is "an essentially lonely game." Once the batting order is set there is nowhere to hide; your turn at the plate is coming. The fact that the whole team is counting on you in that moment produces the possibility of personal exultation or humiliation.

Cumpton pitched for the Pittsburgh Pirates from 2013-14. After Tommy John surgery sidelined the 31-year-old during the 2015 and 2016 seasons, Cumpton returned all the way back to the majors in 2018 with the Toronto Blue Jays. “We started out slow with our starting pitching, and needed to make some decisions and try to find someone with experience,” Goldeyes manager Rick Forney said.
