Carlos Carrasco is a special person both on and off the field. That is known.
He is already the 2019 Roberto Clemente Award winner. Another honor came his way earlier today.
It is easy to be overdramatic when describing sports. Carrasco makes more money than I will ever see in my lifetime and he does so playing a game.
Yet the connection comes with the unique parts of being a sports fan. We hinge our emotions to the play of those wearing our favorite team’s uniforms. We follow their every move and can now even directly reach out to them on social media.
