Dan Boever was born to swing a stick at a ball and to entertain.

Playing baseball before the age of two, Dan's talent was evident even in diapers.

His passion for sports led to a college baseball scholarship and eventually an All-American selection at the University of Nebraska.

In 1983 Dan signed a professional baseball contract with the Cincinnati Reds organization.

Rising through the minor league ranks to the AAA level was both rewarding and frustrating.

"I met so many amazing people along the way.

It was exciting to progress to the highest levels of the game I loved."

Having the opportunity to play in front of fifty thousand screaming people in Denver's Mile High stadium will be a memory Dan always treasures.

"Luckily I had a good night.

You don't want fifty thousand people yelling bad things about your momma."
