Hi Steve,

Just wanted to update you one more time. Stephen did real well in Omaha.

What a difference in the caliber of coaching and players at the Factory event. In Omaha, Stephen had pretty good defense behind him that kept them in the game. It is awesome to see the way the Baseball Factory's staff treats the kids. True professionals all the way.

Coach Wallace's team went all the way and won it, but when you see him, ask him if it might have been tougher if Stephen could have pitched the complete game against them. He had four great innings, 0 runs, but wasn't allowed to keep going. I know he wanted to. Mike's a great guy. Stephen is really looking forward to getting down to USCB and getting started.

Once again, I just wanted to thank you and everyone at the Baseball Factory for giving Stephen an opportunity he never would have had otherwise. We have become tighter as a father and son, and he has experienced things all around the country an 18 year old may never have had a chance to do.
