Earlier this week, we couldn't help but be touched by a story in the Daily News by Joanna Molloy.
Army Cpl. Brendan Rogak, a Brooklyn-born soldier in Afghanistan, has an amazing goal: to bring baseball to kids in Afghanistan. His father, Lawrence Rogak, reached out to the news to get help with acquiring the necessary equipment.

Part of the reason, she said, is that she feels Brendan is a kindred spirit.
"I love nurturing kids at a young age and developing them through their teens into their 20s, so that they're good students but also wonderful people," she said. "And he is, too."
