Gavin Ulin, 12, threw the final pitch and finished off a remarkable run for the kids from Taylor. Gavin Ulin and his mother just returned back home from Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

“I wasn’t thinking. My legs were shaking. I wasn’t thinking. It was baseball at that point,” Gavin Ulin said.

“I told him I love him, be confident in what he knows. We train. We put a lot of time, invest a lot of time, always have, always will,” Guido Ulin said.
