Diamond Dreams Miami Up & In Episode 92 - James Earl Jones Tribute, Remembering 9/11, and Keeping Little Leaguers Loving Baseball

We pay tribute to James Earl Jones, the film legend who passed away this week.  He starred in a lot of great movies, including two very beloved baseball movies "Field of Dreams" and "The Sandlot".  His monologue at the end of "Field of Dreams" as author Terence Mann, is one for the ages.  May he Rest in Peace.   Little Leaguers can either love baseball, be in between, or not like it much.  Mike and Armando talk about keeping them motivated, and how many great players were late bloomers.   Also, the tee ball / instructional league season began at DD.  Girl's softball is coming up soon. Could a cartoon series be responsible for Aaron Judge's struggles?  What the heck did "Big Papi" say about Shohei Ohtani?  Here at Up & In, we reflect on September 11, 2001.  23-years have passed since that tragic day, and every year it hurts just as much.  Where were we when we first heard the news?  How can we get back to the unity in the days that followed?
