They all share the same field. But every player also has his peaks, his shining moment that can never be taken from him, when all of his teammates swarmed him and all of the fans lost their voices in collective jubilation.

The 2-2 Pitch...: July 2014
http://jessegs.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
BUY The Baseball Thesaurus. Thursday, July 17, 2014. In Focus: Dawel Lugo. The Lugnuts did everything right in an 8-4 win over Kane County last night. At least that was how it felt. They didn't actually do. Right - Roberto Espinosa was shaky, for instance. But Shane Dawson. Fired six scoreless innings, impressively holding the Cougars offense off-balance, and the Lugs' offense built an 8-0 lead against the talented Juan Paniagua, and that was all she wrote. The hitting hero last night was Dawel Lugo.
