Description

This photo I took at a AZ. Diamondbacks game with my press credentials. I was on the field for this photo. It was INCREDIBLE to be a part of this! No matter your politcal party, this photo op gave me the chills when I took it! Left is Jeff Moorad, one of the owners of Dbacks baseball team, middle is Presidential Nominee John McCain, and right is USA Olympic Gold Medalist for volleyball,,Misty May-Treanor!! To see them together, during National Anthem with hands on their hearts, was just amazing to experience! It was an American Dream of mine too to be apart of such an awesome thing!!
