Article 2



http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/04/sports/playmagazine/04baseball.html?sq=&st=nyt%22=&scp=22%22by%20Sara%20Corbett=&pagewanted=all

    This article which was written by Sara Corbett describes how baseball itself can constitute a life for people.

For this reason, the journalist took Jarrod Petree, a 12 year old boy as an example. I liked the way she

described his beginnings with baseball and how he was born to play baseball. She well described his family and

how they care about their son. They seem very committed to the future of their son. They even made him the

center of the family and they adjusted everything depending on him since he is always traveling with his team

Central Florida Express. Another nice thing in the article is the use of the emotional words of his family

members to express their feelings and how they support Jarrod for his life goal. The journalist also did a great

job by going into some specific details such as the way of those kids’ lives, their schedules, their dreams, their

families’ hopes…
