¡°No lo olvidar¨¦¡±: Darren, el hijo de Dusty Baker, dio su 1er hit en MLB
¡°No lo olvidar¨¦¡±: Darren, el hijo de Dusty Baker, dio su 1er hit en MLB
WASHINGTON -- Siendo hijo del legendario manager Dusty Baker, Darren Baker ha estado en estadios de Grandes Ligas durante toda su vida. Por primera vez el domingo, estuvo all¨ª como jugador de Grandes Ligas.
Darren fue uno de los jugadores subidos por los Nacionales en septiembre, junto con el derecho Zach Brzykcy, antes de la derrota por 14-1 contra los Cachorros.
¡°Lo hab¨ªa imaginado en mi cabeza cuando era ni?o c¨®mo ser¨ªa, y es bastante cercano¡±, dijo Darren, de 25 a?os, despu¨¦s del juego. ¡°Estaba un poco sorprendido. Poco a poco me asent¨¦, y siento que pertenezco aqu¨ª. Estoy feliz¡±.
Despu¨¦s de a?os en que Darren acompa?ara a su padre a los partidos de las Mayores, Dusty, quien fue m¨¢nager de los Nacionales del 2016 al 2017, vol¨® desde California para ver a su hijo en el Nationals Park. Los Baker llegaron a su hotel en Washington, D.C., alrededor de las 3:30 a.m. la madrugada del domingo, antes del partido pautado para la 1:35 p.m.
¡°Siempre pens¨¦ que iba a ser jugador de Grandes Ligas, porque eso es lo que ¨¦l quer¨ªa¡±, cont¨® Dusty. ¡°Puso el tiempo y el esfuerzo. Pens¨¦ que ten¨ªa el talento para hacerlo. No est¨¢ demasiado impresionado de estar ah¨ª. Est¨¢ agradecido, pero se siente c¨®modo, como en casa.
¡°Los hijos de los jugadores, me gusta pensar en ellos como los hijos de los actores -- todos los Est¨¦vez, todos los Sutherland -- estos muchachos est¨¢n en el set con sus padres desde que eran as¨ª de peque?os. Y lo mismo con Darren. Ese tercer nivel del estadio, no creo que lo impresione¡±.
Darren se hizo famoso por haber servido como recogebates de los Gigantes cuando ten¨ªa 3 a?os durante la Serie Mundial del 2002 contra los Angelinos. Durante el Juego 5, se acerc¨® demasiado al plato tras un triple remolcador de Kenny Lofton, y fue rescatado de un potencial y peligroso choque por el primera base J.T. Snow, quien lo apart¨® del plato.
¡°Eso es algo que ni siquiera recuerda, y se lo recuerdan constantemente¡±, relat¨® Dusty, quien se retir¨® de su carrera de 26 a?os como dirigente en noviembre. ¡°?sa es toda una historia. En ese momento, parec¨ªa algo gracioso o vergonzoso o lo que sea, pero en el c¨ªrculo completo de la vida, tal vez se supon¨ªa que deb¨ªa suceder¡±.
Darren debut¨® como bateador emergente por el venezolano Andr¨¦s Chaparro en el noveno episodio. Mostr¨® lo c¨®modo que se sent¨ªa al hacer swing al primer pitcheo de Grandes Ligas que vio, una recta cortada del derecho Ethan Roberts, y conect¨® un sencillo al jard¨ªn central.
¡°Simplemente estaba tratando de hacerle swing a un strike. No me sent¨ª apresurado; no estaba nervioso ni nada por el estilo¡±, asegur¨® Baker. ¡°Simplemente estaba contento de haber dado el primero¡±.
Durante el partido, Darren pudo ver a sus padres en la tribuna y sab¨ªa que estaban all¨ª cuando lleg¨® a la primera base.
¡°Mi mam¨¢, ella ha ido a todos los juegos¡±, relat¨® Darren. ¡°Pero mi pap¨¢, por no s¨¦ cu¨¢ntos a?os, se perdi¨® muchos juegos por la temporada de Grandes Ligas. Entonces, el hecho de que pudiera ver esto hoy es algo especial, y no lo voy a olvidar¡±.
Dusty Baker¡¯s son is no stranger to Major League ballparks.
