Alright, let’s talk about this fella, Alex Bregman. You know, the baseball player? Yeah, that one. He’s a real good player, plays for the Houston Astros. Folks say he’s a star, a “star of David” they call him. Don’t rightly know what all that means, but he’s good at hitting that ball, that’s for sure.
This Bregman fella, he’s Jewish. Heard tell he grew up in some place called Albuquerque, went to a church or somethin’, Congregation Albert they called it. When he was just a young lad, 13 years old, he gave a speech, a big one, for his Bar Mitzvah. Said he wanted to be a baseball player, play for the love of the game, always try his best, and be a good example for the youngsters. Sounds like a good boy to me.
And wouldn’t you know it, he went and did just that. He plays baseball real good. I saw a picture once, after a game, he was wearin’ a hat with that star thingy on it. Star of David, they say. Guess he’s proud of bein’ Jewish, and that’s just fine. He was playin’ against some team, Minnesota Twins I think, and his team won. Folks were real happy.
- He hits that ball real far, they call it a “homer,” sometimes even a “grand slam.”
- Heard tell he even won some kind of prize, an MVP thing, in 2018.
- And he almost won another one in 2019, came in second.
He’s a good hitter, that Bregman. Reminds me of them fellas from the old days, always hittin’ the ball hard. He’s quick too, like a rabbit runnin’ through the fields.
Now, they say he’s only 23 years old, but he plays like he’s been doin’ it forever. He built on what he did in his rookie year and now he’s a real good player, one of the best I reckon. People like watchin’ him play, they cheer real loud when he comes up to bat.
Folks are always talkin’ about how the Astros, that’s Bregman’s team, they let good players go sometimes. Don’t rightly understand why, but they do. Hope they don’t let Bregman go, he’s a good one. He brings excitement to the game, you know? Keeps things interestin’.
They sell all sorts of things with Bregman’s name on it. Shirts, hats, even watches and keychains! Can you believe it? People sure do love their baseball players. Me, I just like watchin’ the game, seein’ them hit that ball and run around the bases. It’s a good way to spend an afternoon, especially when the weather’s nice.
Now, there’s this other fella, Harrison Bader, plays for the Mets. He’s Jewish too, wears a Star of David belt. Seems like there’s a lot of Jewish fellas playin’ baseball. Good for them, I say. It don’t matter who you are or where you come from, long as you play the game right and treat folks with respect. That’s what matters.
So, that’s the story on Alex Bregman, the “star of David” baseball player. He’s a good hitter, a good player, and seems like a good fella too. Hope he keeps playin’ for a long time, he brings joy to a lot of folks, that’s for sure.
I heard tell that he is really dedicated to the game. Always practicing, always trying to get better. That’s what it takes, you know? You can’t just sit around and expect to be good at something. You gotta work at it, day in and day out. And that’s what Bregman does, from what I hear. He’s a hard worker, and that’s why he’s so good.
And he seems like a good teammate too. Always cheerin’ on his fellow players, always there to lend a hand. That’s important in baseball, it’s a team sport, you know? You can’t do it all by yourself. You need your teammates, and your teammates need you. And Bregman seems to understand that. He’s a team player, and that’s another reason why he’s so valuable.
So, there you have it. A little bit about Alex Bregman. A good baseball player, a good man, and a “star of David.” He’s someone to watch, that’s for sure. And who knows, maybe he’ll win that MVP award one of these days. He deserves it, I reckon.
