Across the county, spring sports athletes have seen their seasons canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. That’s upsetting, but one star MLB player is trying to ease the pain a bit at his old high school.
Milwaukee Brewers star Christian Yelich sent out an inspiring message to senior baseball players at Westlake High School in Westlake Village, Ca. Yelich himself went to school there, and his message might help ease the pain for some seniors who didn’t get to play this year.
Got this email today from the best player in baseball, to forward to our seniors, if you are a senior in high school or college take a minute to read. pic.twitter.com/RxamuAVU3a

We have seen before that Yelich does not forget where he came from. His high school played a key role in his development, so this is him paying that back a bit. There’s no doubt that the senior class at Westlake must appreciate getting a message from one of the best baseball players in the league right now offering them a bit of motivation and reassurance, and it’s a cool thing for him to have done.
