This is a great story as presented by Glenn Sacks of Fathers & Families. Harlan and his son Joba's story couldn't be more opposite while at the same time being exactly like the story of Dick Hoyt father to Ricky Hoyt and together they are Team Hoyt.
Both are great fathers doing their best with the tools and ability that God gave them to be great fathers. Harlan didn't let being a disabled father stop him from giving his son the most normal life of excellence possible. If you don't know, Harlan's son Joba is a pitcher for the New York Yankees. Yes the same Yankees who just won the World Series! Read the full story here: http://www.fathersandfamilies.org/?p=5217
Dick Hoyt didn't let his son Rick's disability stop Rick from having a full life of value and excellence as well. Google Team Hoyt if you don't know the Hoyt's story.
Two fathers parenting in opposite situations sharing a common goal to give their best to their children. Inspiring us all to become better parents and at the very least attend at least one more little league game.
Go Dads Go!
