Thanks, Sister bear.
I heard the story somewhat different, though. At the end of the father telling the story, he says “my son will never be mainstream. He will never be a regular kid. And I often wonder, what is his tachlis in life? And now I know the answer; he was sent here to give the 18 boys on the baseball field a chance to grow… and chance to do the right thing.
Either way, a great story, and a great lesson.
