Aside from the awards and medals that they
have received from their chosen sports, this high school baseball team from
California is likely to receive hero’s gold award for saving a teenage girl
from a car crash.
They may not be the best baseball players
in town, but in terms of team work, they definitely deserve recognition, much
more after recent reports about their heroic act surfaced.
According to recent news reports, a group
of high school baseball players rescued a fellow teen after she was struck by a
car in their school’s parking lot. The teen girl was accidentally pinned under
the vehicle after her own mother, who was then reversing the car, panicked when
she hit another parked car in Sacramento’sValley High School. Subsequently, she began reversing without realizing
that her daughter was behind the car. As a result of which, the girl was pinned
underneath the vehicle.
After hearing a scream calling for help,
the Valley’s varsity and junior baseball teams that were practicing on a nearby
field, rushed to the scene. Around a dozen of baseball players helped in
lifting the four-door sedan to set the girl off underneath the vehicle, media
sources said.
Following the incident, during a brief
interview, the team’s co-head coach, Brett Sawyer, has confirmed that the girl
is expected to recover soon. Also, the proud trainer claimed that although the
school might not have the best baseball team, at least it has a great group of
guys.
Apparently, it was purely an accident due
to an unexpected manual failure. Nobody is to be blamed for the incident. Let
us just be thankful that nothing serious, which the mother might regret for the
rest of her life, occurred, said by a Los Angeles car crash attorney.
