Cooper Stone, 6, tosses the ceremonial first pitch to Texas Rangers left fielder Josh Hamilton (32) before Game 1 of baseball's American League division series playoffs on Friday, Sept. 30, in Arlington, Texas. It was Hamilton who threw the ball Shannon Stone was reaching for when he fell to his death behind the outfield wall in July.

Last year same series road team won all the games.

Cj was up in the zone with his stuff way to much. The rookie Matt Moore looked great in only his 2nd career start. Hope the Rangers can do it. But having to face Shields twice along with David Price will be tough.

I realize that it took a tradgey for this young man to throw out the 1st pitch, but the picture puts a smile in my heart.  Some things in this world are still good and this picture is one of them!!!

You cant help but shed a tear when you see that on tv. Is there a better man in MLB than Josh Hamilton? What a great story he is and role model.

If you are a Josh Hamilton fan or if you are just moved by his story, be sure and get a copy of his book.  He tells everything in the book.  From his childhood days, his journey through professional baseball, his drug addiction days, and then his return to MLB.  I couldn't put the book down.  Great read.
