From a life of hockey to taking a gamble on the game of baseball, the high-energy outfielder is already making an massive impact for Single-A West Michigan.
Watching Ross Kivett take a few swings in the on deck circle that afternoon, onlookers got a glimpse into a day in the life of the outfielder. "I woke up this morning and thought, 'Today is going to be a good day,'" Kivett said, shooting a grin in the direction of the home crowd.
With enthusiasm that would rival that of a five-year-old, the perspective on life by the West Michigan Whitecaps outfielder is infectious.
