Adam Bender, 8, is a single of multiform kids who fool around catcher in Southeastern’s rookie joining during Veterans Park . What creates Adam mount out is which he plays a single of a toughest positions upon a margin with usually a single leg . Because of cancer, he had his left leg amputated when he was a single . Adam doesn’t make use of a prosthesis, as well as usually uses crutches when he reaches bottom for a Astros . by Charles Bertram, Lexington Herald-Leader

    I love to see this kids with disabilities living a normal life but you gotta worry about him running the base bads with those cruches. It’s hard enough to be careful with cleats on you know. Its just a little dangerous for him and his opponents. Still an amazing story though. I just saw it on ESPN E:60

    obviously you’re missing a lot more than that

    This kid is truly amazing and inspirational. This kid is amazing. Wow, you rock Adam.

    I hope you people who say he his crutches are “cheating” aren’t serious. How is that cheating? Once he gets to first, he has to wait a second or two to get his crutches on. Then he can’t move as quickly as someone who runs.

    how is it unfair? seriously, and think about the fact that its RECREATIONAL LITTLE LEAGUE and its to have fun anyway

  17. Criminology187 on Sat, 16th Aug 2008 2:30 pm 

    this kid is NO athlete. The use of his crutches is unfair to the players on the other team. Im surprised none of there parents have spoken out.
