This story is about a Bronx man who is responsible for 500 children. Henry Pelayo is the president of the Castle Hill Little League. Until a few weeks ago, he didn't know if there was going to be a season. It is very important to the kids, very important to the parents. This league here is a good league.
Baseball is fun.
The 500 children who make up the 25 teams of the Castle Hill Little League have no idea how close they came to not having a season this year. Both fields were in terrible condition. Mr. Pelayo hired a contractor to begin a massive renovation project. A company called Nick's construction started the job, but never finished. He came for two days, did a little work and never came back.
