Some of the biggest cheers at Oriole Park Sunday night came before the game even started.
A sellout crowd stood as Perry Hall High student Daniel Borowy threw out the ceremonial first pitch with his guidance counselor, Jesse Wasmer.
Six weeks ago, Borowy, 17, was seriously wounded when he was shot in the high school lunchroom, allegedly at the hands of a fellow student. Wasmer is credited with intervening and preventing further violence. Click here to see Patch's coverage of the Perry Hall High shooting.
Orioles fans were especially delighted to see the balls caught by Nick Markakis and Brian Roberts—two popular players who are unable play due to injury.
Your a special young man. To live thru something like that, the Lord have a PURPOSE for you, and your life : ) Never give up. And for the teacher who came to ALL the students rescue, our schools need more teachers like you. Someone standing in the gap. Thank You : )
