By Ben Bograd hen Millb u r n S h o r t Hills Youth Baseball changed its bat regulations, parents sighed in resignation. The rules meant new bats needed to be bought, while any bought the previous year would live a life collecting dust in a basement or garage. Though bat shopping remains imminent, high school senior, Tyler Barishaw, came up with a plan for the ladder. Barishaw decided to collect bats from around town; many where in mint condition, barely a year old. He donated 225 of them to DREAM, an organization that fosters
a nurturing, positive environment for young children to play baseball and softball in East Harlem, the South Bronx and Newark. According to Barishaw, “Sports offer the opportunity to make friendships and memories regardless of how good the team is or
how many games the team wins.” DREAM recognizes that baseball and softball serve a larger purpose, outside the foul lines of winning and losing. They use sport as a canvas for children to learn lessons of hard work, teamwork and resiliency. More so than most
other sports, baseball is a game predicated on failure and one’s ability to cope with adversity. In baseball, getting out is inevitable; the best players do not eliminate failure, they maximize their chances at success. Jason Polanco, cont. on page 4
