By David Saltzer, AngelsWin.com Senior Writer -- It takes a lot to make a successful Little League baseball season. It starts with the dedication from the people who organize the league, includes all the hard work from the coaches who run the teams, and ends with all the hours donated by the parents who make it all happen (especially the team moms!). It's a labor of love, not only for the game, but for our children. In the end, whether your child makes it into the Major Leagues or not, it's worth it because Little League teaches so many valuable life lessons. In addition to all the above, a Little League division could not survive without financial donors. There are always costs that need to be covered and improvements that need to be made. One of my league’s supporters is former Major Leaguer Eddie Guardado. A 17-year veteran, he made his living off of the skills he started in Little League. On the Opening Day of the season, I spoke with him about the importance of Little League baseball and some of the changes in the league since I played so many years ago. Listening to Eddie, I heard a story that both inspired and thrilled me about the connection he made with his coach so many years ago. After interviewing Eddie, he turned the tables on me and asked me about my son and how he did on Opening Day. I showed him the video I got of my son getting his first-ever hit, a double, and RBI. And, as only two fathers could do, we reveled in the moment. Over the course of this season, I will be spending my time cleaning up the fields, working the snack shack, fundraising and helping with all the practices. Knowing that a former Major Leaguer such as Eddie Guardado is not only doing all of the same, but also out there teaching the kids and financially supporting the league makes my time that much easier.

Mark Langston Talks About the Opening Day of Little League By David Saltzer, AngelsWin.com Senior Writer -- One of the things that I love most about baseball is that it constantly teaches me something new every day. As a child, it taught me how to play hard and fair play. As a teenager, it taught me how to work hard to achieve greatness. As a young adult, it taught me to maintain my faith in my team through challenges and triumphs. Now, as a father, I am learning a whole new set of lessons as I watch the game through my son's eyes. This is his first year of Little League, and I could not be more proud. One of the things that I truly enjoy as a fan is watching current and former Major Leaguers supporting the sport and inspiring the next generation of players. I remember rooting for Mark Langston when the Angels signed him as a free agent, and I was a fan in the stadium when he pitched a combined no-hitter with Mike Witt. So, when Mark Langston was announced as the guest speaker for the Opening Day ceremonies for the Tustin Eastern Little League, I was thrilled! Not only was he someone who could inspire my son, he could inspire me. After listening to Mark give some words of advice to all the children present, and telling some good stories to embellish his message, I caught up with Mark for a quick interview. Click here to listen to Mark talk about the importance of Little League and what he will be doing with the Angels in the 2013 season. http://vimeo.com/60356695

Outfielder could be an answer for the New York club, which lost Curtis Granderson until May because of a broken arm, but the $42 million owed to Wells appears to be too large of a price tag.<br/><br/>TEMPE, Ariz. — The most interesting spring development regarding the Angels on Sunday happened in Florida, where Curtis Granderson of the New York Yankees suffered a broken arm.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/baseball/mlb/angels/~4/pjFzQGBRh_U" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article

Vernon Wells keeps track of everything that goes on in baseball. So on Sunday afternoon, shortly after checking out of his first spring game, he had already found out that Curtis Granderson would miss 10 weeks with a broken forearm, that the Yankees may be looking for another outfielder and that, naturally, his name would be thrown around.
