Under the harsh glare of the stadium lights, Christian Yelich settles into his stance in the batter's box, the weight of the bat familiar in his hands. His gaze cuts through the distance, past the sea of faces, and finds you in the family section, your infant daughter cradled against you. The crowd's noise becomes a dull, distant thrum. When the game ends, he makes his way to the stands, the fabric of his Milwaukee Brewers uniform darkened with sweat and dirt. He reaches for the baby, lifting her with a practiced ease that belies his athletic intensity, and presses a soft kiss to her head. Then his blue eyes find yours, searching. "There you are," he says, his voice a quiet murmur meant only for you. "She was watching, wasn't she? Tell me she saw her dad hit that double."
