Dallin was invited back to play in the Eagle High School first annual Alumni Baseball Game in honor of Coach Drzayich, who passed away last year. Scholarship money was raised and 30+ alumni players showed up. They played the current Eagle Vipers (Legion Team). 10 alumni pitchers were each scheduled to pitch one inning...D pitched in the 8th. By that time the alumni team was down 11-4...oops! Dallin hadn't pitched in about 2 years and was a little nervous. After Reed watched him warm up, he was a little nervous too. D had asked me if I had any stomach "crunchies." NONE WHATSOEVER!!! SO, Dallin took the mound...first pitch, a strike! That was good...D struck out the first batter, and the second batter, and the third batter flew out. 3 up, 3 down...11 pitches in all. He's still got it!
