“As it turned out -- all those lonely sessions hitting off the tee, all those 1-on-1 battles with the pitching machine, all those bullpen sessions in front of maybe four or five sets of eyes and all those ground balls on cold days and hot day -- it was all worth it. The date June 12 was almost two years in the making for many in the Okotoks Dawgs Academy.
