The baseball field has always been home to Kevin Baker. For years, he had stepped in between the white lines and took part in the action on the mound and at the plate. But his freshman year at the University of Portland was different. He was in a new position: spectator.
As he sat and watched in the stands of Joe Etzel Field, he had only one thought: “I think I’ve got a shot to make the team.”
Baseball has been a part of Baker’s life since he was three years old and has been a part of his family for generations.
