What a great few days it's been. I spent my three days off from playing ball hitting up local bars. It was a great time because I was able to meet someone who is a lot like me. Unfortunately I think I may have been played. It's the story of my life. Here is the situation:
I went to a local martini bar downtown and met up with 2 friends of mine who are girls. They were already sitting with a group of guys. One was extremely good looking and caught my eye. Now, Usually while I am out I try not to hit on guys, but this one was an exception. We definitely hit it off and find out we both like the Yankees and the NY Giants in football. After sitting and drinking for about an hour, I got up and headed for the bathroom. His friend Chris stopped me and asked me flat out if I was into Shane (the Hot one I had been talking too.)
With the alcohol talking I blurted out "yes". So here I am talking with this hot guy about how he wants to sail out to the middle of the ocean and find himself. I'm thinking to myself how hot is this?
So, after the bar closes we end up back at his buddies house. I am thinking to myself, I AM IN! But, as always there is a problem. He starts hitting on my friend Jenn. Long story short, around 5:30am I passed out on the floor with nothing really happening. I woke up about an hour later with the familiar sounds of sex coming from the couch. I looked up to see my friend Jenn and Shane having sex. Defeated, I got up and left the house.
Just my luck I guess. I took the chance, got hit in the face. Why can't there be normal gay guys, and not straight ones pretending to be gay to get a girl in the sack.

Hello All! And welcome to my attempt at venting out frustration! I am a gay baseball player in the Major League Baseball system that needs to be able to express the person that I truly am, but can’t. Baseball is definitely ready for a gay baseball player, but America is not. I thought I would write down my random feelings and overall experiences being a gay professional athlete in America. We are out there. I don’t know how to find the rest of us, but I do know that as I travel and play for different teams in different cities, I meet a lot of people that know people that know people. I want to be able to share my frustrations and maybe get some open anonymous dialogue going here on the net. I do know that my location may not be revealed right away for fear of outing and losing what I have worked so hard to get. Little League, High School, Travel teams, College and now being given a shot to maybe become the next Derek Jeter or whoever you idolize in the majors.I want to share a little about myself. I was born in the Northeast and played some ball down South briefly before ending up where I am now. Like I said, I hope this blog can create a dialogue between the average American fan as well as other Gay Athletes around the country! Feel free to contact me by anyway possible. I can be reached at ClubhouseCloset@gmail.com
