From Wondry, I'm Brandon Acosta, and this is Who's Amazing Life.

You've heard of people who changed the course of history, but before they made their

mark on the world, they were people like you and me, still figuring out what they wanted

to do with their lives.

In this episode, you will be that person everyone knows.

You might be a musician, or an athlete, a scientist, or a painter.

You may know what the person accomplished later in life, but now you can experience everything

they faced along the way, from challenges and heartbreak, to triumphs and excitement,

all the moments that built this person into someone who would change the world.

There will be clues, so pay attention, but only at the end will you find out who you are.

So sit back and imagine your amazing life as the hometown hero.

Imagine you are 14 years old gazing out at a lush green baseball field.

The game is underway, and the stands are full of fans cheering for the Senadores, your hometown team.

You and your friends cheer along with the crowd.

Except you and the other kids aren't actually part of the crowd.

You're sitting high up in a big tree just behind right field.

You couldn't afford tickets to sit in the stands, so you had to improvise.

The tree branches are a little scratchy, but the view of the baseball field is great.

You live in Wintoriko, an island in the Caribbean Sea, so even in the winter it's hot and humid.

As you wipe sweat off your forehead with the bottom of your t-shirt,

you see a familiar figure far down below you on the field, but getting closer by the second.

It's your favorite player, Monnie Irving.
