Baseball Philippines

My sister is always sending me text messages inviting me to watch a baseball game in Rizal Stadium, her husband being the player/manager/coach for the Team Dumaguete (which they named Unibikers).

She says that’s its already championship and I guess she is very proud of her husband so I went to the stadium and watched the game even am not that keen or I can’t really understand how the game goes.
When I watched it for the first time, I enjoyed the game as I saw how the players can strike the ball and run to the base. You can see their passion to the game and how eager they are to win the title.

Baseball Philippines (BP) is not as popular as the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) but through this event, the Filipinos will eventually embrace this sport like how the Americans are so enthusiastic with the game. BP believes that this will be the next big thing in the Philippine sports.
My sister told me I’m the lucky gem as Dumaguete Unibikers won over the Batangas Bulls in game 2 make it 1-1 for a series of 3. It made me proud for my brother-in-law when I saw sports newscasters/ journalist get to him to get an interview from him, being the coach/manager of the team. But anyway, he is used to that since he is always in the sports news especially if its about baseball.
The victory brought me for a free lunch with the players at Bacolod Chicken Inasal near the Stadium.




Go for the win Dumaguete Unibikers!!!
