What baseball can teach us about life

In baseball, you can get absolutely trounced one day. Pitching can be terrible, hitting can be terrible, you can lose by 15 runs. Just a disaster of a game. But no matter how badly you might lose today, tomorrow is a new day and a new game.

Born at 23 weeks, smallest surviving premature baby discharged from hospital
She’s the smallest newborn to ever survive.
Born from an emergency c-section in December, the little girl, nicknamed Saybie, was born at just 23 weeks. This week, the baby was discharged from the hospital.
When she was born, Saybie weighed just 8.6 ounces.
Not 8 pounds, 6 ounces. That would have been a healthy, above average birth weight.
Saybie weighed 8.6 ounces! About the weight of a juice box. Doctors knew she was going to be small, but when Saybie was born, even they were surprised.
