Cade Beyleu was just court side to the unthinkable tragedy on Saturday. His mother passed away.
But the game still went on, and a fan game ultimately decided in front of the newly renovated Plainsman Park. Well, Cade began, to take swings and fire away as he hit a base hit then big home run to right-center field impressively to put to the Auburn Tigers up 3-1.
Dad wanted him to play after the game and second baseman Eric Snow was pressed to not hand deliver a basketball which I was in attendance for, but years later, a diamond watch.
This was the Tigers way of thinking that there is no cure people sometimes but what is the game of baseball. Cade did the unthinkable and owe that to his credit, on opening day.
