There were four athletic, driven young men walking the exhibit hall here at ABCA in almost matching t-shirts. I couldn’t miss them. They pounded the ball in cages where they could, threw it in cages where that was the goal, they went to every FUN spot on the Exhibit Floor. The joy of baseball was apparent and we need to share that.
Jarret Gardner (Moore HS, 1999) had a brilliant idea. He runs Extra Effort: Oklahoma City and he has four high school sophomores who need some exposure (Class of 2026). These Extra Effort Cardinals are all in white t-shirts, with the front identifying the facility and the back… providing how to reach them!
