Love For The Game

There is no question Glen Meranto, a Mississippi native, loves the game. In fact, He has so much passion for the game whether it’s softball or baseball, that He became an umpire. He loves to call balls and strikes but he loves seeing these young people get opportunities in the game even more,”you’re never gonna know who’s watching. That’s what I tell the kids. There could be LSU coaches, Texas Tech coaches at the game. It’s important they be on their best behavior because there are millions of kids that want to play college ball but at the end of the day if someone is watching you and you don’t have the right attitude or personality nobody wants that. Everybody is setting an example on how to compose yourself not only on the field but most importantly outside the field and you’re not just a good baseball player but you’re setting an example for your community and your town. They matter just as much as your play on the field does”.
