Kaczmarski turns lifelong MLB dream into a reality

Growing up, many of us have a dream. Kevin Kaczmarski's dream was to play Major League Baseball. This was more than a dream for him – it was a certainty. While his road from Cary, Illinois to the majors had many twists and turns, one thing is for certain – his goal would not be denied.
