Why I Write for Crashing The Pearly Gates

As I sit down to express my genuine enthusiasm for the opportunity to contribute to the “Crashing the Pearly Gates” blog, I can’t help but reflect on the journey that has led me here. My passion for baseball has been an unwavering constant in my life since childhood, shaping not only my recreational activities but also my academic and professional aspirations. Now, as I look to the future where my love for the game and my dreams of a career in sports broadcasting overlap, having secured this internship fills me with excitement and anticipation.

For over 15 years I have dedicated myself to actively playing baseball. From Little League to high school and travel ball, the diamond has been my second home. With each swing of the bat and every play in the field, my appreciation for the details of the sport deepened, fueling my desire to explore its meaning beyond the confines of the diamond.

As I prepare for another summer season on the field, I am also looking ahead to my future academic and professional goals.

My commitment to the sport and to this internship opportunity is extensive, driven by a deep passion for baseball and a genuine enthusiasm for the work ahead.

While my allegiance lies with the Oakland Athletics rather than the Los Angeles Angels, my love for the sport far exceeds rooting for one team. I have had the privilege of experiencing the electric atmosphere of countless games at the Coliseum and witnessing firsthand the great impact of baseball on communities. These experiences have not only deepened my understanding of the game but also strengthened my dedication to the sport.

In closing, I want to extend my gratitude for considering me for this opportunity.
