This last Saturday, April 24, our Berkshire High School baseball team had the honor of playing against the Cuyahoga Heights Redskins on the Indian’s home field, Progressive Field. Being a part of the High School Hard Ball Classic charity event, they were chosen to participate in this game. Leading up to the event the team was responsible for selling their tickets, at minimum they had to sell three hundred tickets. When they were finished they were able to take the field and play ball. Dodging raindrops, they were able to experience playing on a major league field, using major league facilities, like the batting cages and dugouts. John Cowill said, “When I was running around the bases it felt like Christmas all over again!” The Badgers won the game 10-6. The team was ecstatic in participating in this amazing opportunity.
