2 months later
It was opening fay. The Empires were up against the Twins and Drew was starting pitcher. After Baylee had come to spring training, they’d talked things through, agreed to do whatever it took to make things work and, like Tyler predicted, Drew’s focus cleared and his pitching went back to its full potential. He’d gained back his spot on the team.
He was able to make a quick trip back to Silver Bay to see Baylee before the season started but, more importantly, to have a long talk with Jenny. Baylee didn’t know it, but Drew had asked Jenny for her blessing to marry Baylee and amidst more tears than made Drew comfortable, she’d said yes.
From the dugout, Drew scanned the crowd. It was a full house and the weather was outstanding. As if God called in a perfect day just for Drew. His eyes found his baking bombshell in the stands with the other wives and girlfriends. Casey sat beside her and Jenny on his other side. They’d flown in the see Drew pitch, but afterwards, he and Jenny had planned for her to take Casey so Drew could show Baylee around New York.
Excited to be with her in the city, the best part of the evening would be a rose filled carriage ride, followed by a proposal.
The announcer’s voice boomed over the speakers and the Empires took the field. As Drew settled onto the pitcher’s mound, he glanced at Baylee and gave her a nod of his cap. She waved, the blush of her cheeks evident even from where he stood.
“Let’s play ball!”
Drew took a deep breath and rubbed the baseball in his fingers.
Life didn’t get any better than this.
The End
