Any kind of exposure to good players and the way the game is played (helps), and he sees how people handle themselves, and his dad's been a true professional all these years. It can do nothing but help him.

I'm happy to get that first win. It was really neat for the kids to experience that finally, after a rain delay and three days off between the end of spring training, and four or five days since we played a game.

It's great for kids to be able to come to a park this nice early in their career. When I was playing at this level, there wasn't anything like this around, for sure.
