The Chicken Runs at Midnight
I was watching the Mariners vs Detroit baseball game on Sunday, and one of the commentators started talking about Rich Donnelly, the Mariner's 3rd base coach. He was talking about what a wonderful coach and man he is, and about a story that was just heartbreaking, but everyone should read. He suggested it was worth Googling 'The Chicken Runs at Midnight'. Having no idea what it was about, but loving a good inspirational story, I decided to check it out.
Before I was half way through reading the story, I had tears streaming down my face. It is one of the most touching, inspirational stories about a man, he beloved daughter and the love of baseball.
I found a video of the story that was just as touching. Get your tissues, it's a bit of tearjerker.
