Baseball is one of a kind, in that it is primarily a game of failure. The best hitters in the world fail seven out of every 10 at bats, and they still make the hall of fame. The most dominant pitchers often fail to get a batter out at least once an inning. As Volunteer Assistant Coach, Stan Parese, told us before one of our weekend series, three batters must fail each inning for the game to progress — rendering failure an essential outcome for any game. So while our season (9-22, 2-10 NESCAC) did not turn out as we had hoped, the high points showcased flashes of the type of resilience that all great baseball teams possess.
