In this week's episode of The Journey of My Mother's Son podcast, I was fortunate to sit down with Ella Witman. Ella is only 12 years old, soon to be 13, but people of all ages should be inspired by her story. An avid softball player and horseback rider, Ella had her world come crashing down in late October of 2018 when she broke her hip in a freak accident a few days following injuring it on the field. Faced with the possibility of never being able to ride a horse or play the game of softball again, Ella's strength and perseverance has her back in the saddle and soon to be back on the playing field as well. Ella leaned on a strong support system within her family and close friends as well as some encouragement and prayers from some awesome former Olympians, Jennie Finch, Leah O'Brien-Amico, Crystl Bustos, and Toni Mascarenas.

She was a standout pitcher in college at the University of Texas where she ended her college career with records in wins, strikeouts, ERA, WHIP and innings pitched. She still owns the NCAA Division One record for perfect games and is top-10 in wins, strikeouts, shutouts and no-hitters. As a member of the Longhorns softball team, Osterman was named Big 12 Pitcher of the Year all four years she played and is a 2-time ESPY Award winning for the top collegiate female athlete (2005, 2006).

Carl & Dave breakdown a laundry list of amazing 27's before getting into some very important announcements: (1) the boys are going to the Winter Meetings but only if you buy stuff from RLR advertisers (2) Saturday 8/19 7pm Carl & Dave are throwing a RLR/Barstool At The Park party at Kane County Cougars game. Show up. Dave then breaks down his attempt at hitting a professional fast pitch softball superstar while getting shamed by Jennie Finch at the Chicago Bandits game last weekend. Carl goes on a tirade about not getting credit for his first major Scoop City from ESPN before calming down over Kris Bryant's last couple weeks. Other topics: Giancarlo Stanton on the Cubs, Hawk Harrelson on Wrigley, American Legion Week, Ricketts handing out rings and the best Reader Emails yet. BIG SHOW.
Carl and WhiteSoxDave pay homage to the greatest #26 in MLB history, Wade Anthony Boggs, and his relentless commitment to pounding Miller Lites (amongst other things). Dave gives his 20-80 scouting report on his 5 Drinking Beer Tools while Carl puts Keith Law in a body bag and sends him down the Cal Sag river. Later, Dave strokes his ego with White Sox #1 Scout Nick Hostetler who joins the guys to talk about Yoan Moncada, life on the road and working with his best friend, Rick Hahn. After, Carl gets very emotional about Willson Contreras but bounces back because Jake Arrieta is bouncing back. The guys then explain why Jennie Finch is terrified of WSD for several reasons and take a couple emails, but only 2 because WSD had to leave recording early for softball playoffs. He went 0-3 btw.

Produced by http://Fastpitch.TV - Jennie Finch talks about her softball career all the way from the beginning to the end. She uses a softball bat that could be purchased at http://SoftballJunk.com. Finch started playing at the age of five after growing up watching her two older brothers play baseball. All though her dad was never her team coach he was her pitching coach her whole softball career. Finch's dad created the Finch Windmill Pitcher that young softball pitchers use to help them train and strengthen their arms just as Finch did when she first starting pitching at the age of 11. Finch later went on to play at the University of Arizona where she led her team to winning a National Championship her junior year. All though her team fell short her senior year the experience lead her to the opportunity to play for the National Team and to go on to win a gold and silver medal in the time she played with them. She had known since the age of 16 that she had wanted to be part of the National softball team and that she wanted to represent her country in the sport of softball. Finch also played in the NPF for the Chicago bandits where she recently retired after deciding that she wanted to settle down a little more and have another child. She now has two kids Ace and Diesel and is married to former baseball player Casey Daigle. Since her retire from playing she has become more involved with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) where she now is on the advisory board. She also has written a book Throw Like a Girl where she talks about the good and bad and everything in between of her experience of the game.

Jennie Finch was a star softball player at the University of Arizona. As a first baseman she lead the team in doubles (14) and extra-base hits (21) and was second on the squad in homeruns (7). Jennie has a powerful fastball,a curveball, screwball, dropball and riseball (changeup) in her arsenal and she spent her freshman year refining them and her pitching strategy. Her work ethic and the competitiveness that fueled it paid off. She finished her freshman year with an impressive 24-6 regular season record, but the best was yet to come. http://www.jenniefinch.com/index
