Hi everyone, my name is Mike Redondo, and I never thought I’d have to write something like this. Last night, my car was stolen, and inside it was everything — not just my personal belongings, but all of my two sons’ baseball gear and team practice equipment.

I coach 2 youth travel baseball teams and have coached for Rodeo for years. My boys and I live and breathe this sport. We’ve spent countless weekends on the road, early mornings at the fields, and late nights under the lights — building not just skills, but a baseball family. All of that equipment represented years of hard work, dedication, and sacrifice — from the kids, the parents, and our community.

In one night, it was all taken away. Bats, gloves, helmets, catching gear, training tools for the team — everything the boy's need to keep playin .We still have a couple of travel tournaments left this season, and it breaks my heart to think these amazing kids might not get to finish what they’ve worked so hard for.

I’m not just asking for help for myself — I’m asking for my boys. Players who show up every day ready to work hard, respect the game, and lift each other up. Every dollar raised will go directly toward replacing baseball equipment so these boys can keep doing what they love.

If you’re able to donate, share, or even send a few kind words, it means more than I can express. Thank you for helping us rebuild what was lost — not just our gear, but our spirit.

⚾ With heartfelt gratitude,

Mike Redondo
