"José Yan: The Baseball Player" is a story set in the small neighborhood of "Harás Nacionales" in Villa Mella. José Yan, the protagonist, has had a lifelong dream of becoming a professional baseball player. Supported by his family and inspired by previous success stories from his area, José relentlessly pursues his dream. At a young age, José attracts the attention of scouts with his impressive skills. However, his manager, driven by greed, rejects lucrative offers without informing José. Despite this setback, José remains determined and continues to excel in his games. As years pass, his manager consistently rejects offers, causing doubts and disappointment to grow within José. In an attempt to improve his chances of securing a contract, José switches positions and becomes a pitcher. His manager loses faith in him and eventually dismisses him. Undeterred, José perseveres and catches the attention of a respected manager who offers to train him. Under this new guidance, José's pitching skills improve significantly, leading to an invitation to a major event where American scouts witness his remarkable talent. Despite José's exceptional performance, his manager rejects yet another offer. It is later revealed that the manager's intentions were never focused on José's success, but rather exploiting his skills for personal gain. Disillusioned, José confronts his manager and breaks ties with him. Feeling defeated, José temporarily gives up on his dreams and seeks menial jobs to support his struggling family. However, a glimmer of hope appears when a friend introduces José to a new manager who genuinely believes in his potential. Despite his initial skepticism, José meets with the manager, who recognizes his talent and takes immediate action to get him noticed by scouts. Finally, a scout gives José a chance and signs him, allowing him to fulfill his lifelong dream of joining a renowned team in the United States. The story emphasizes the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity and the pursuit of one's dreams. José's journey showcases the resilience and determination required to overcome obstacles and achieve success. It serves as an inspiration to young baseball players, urging them never to give up and always play with their whole heart while keeping their families in mind.
