Former MLB pitcher Ben McDonald bagged a monster buck which he dedicated to his father, aka Paw Paw, who died in January.
McDonald pitched for the Baltimore Orioles and the Milwaukee Brewers.
In an X post, McDonald wrote:
I normally don’t share too many of my thoughts on social but this is too good not to share. I lost my dad in January…sitting in a bowstand yesterday enjoying hunting season without him for the first time gave me a chance to reflect on all the hours we spent together on ball fields, basketball courts, and in the deer woods. I was having a conversation with him telling him how much I miss him and thanking him for everything he did for us and our family and the many sacrifices he made.
McDonald said he began to cry as thought about Paw Paw and that as soon as his tears dried, a monster buck walked out in the open in front of him:
I had a good cry as I wish…
