When a coach "gets out of the game and comes back," it typically means they were ejected from the game….
Coaches are ejected from the game for a variety of reasons, but then later they can return to the sidelines after serving a suspension period.
This time a year ago coach had just started back coaching baseball at Wesleyan. Only a few weeks into the season pancreatic cancer ejected him from the game. He then served a grueling “suspension period” on the sidelines.
But as the rule book states, a coach may return to the field when their suspension period is over.
🎤Ladies and gentleman. May I have your attention please. Please stand to your feet in the stands…. As we proudly welcome back COACH WORTHINGTON to the diamond. (The crowd goes wild)
You see… great coaches don’t just teach the game; great coaches teach LIFE through the game.
Coach still has coaching left to do. The Almighty League Commissioner has made that very clear in His promises to us: His word remains true. He still performs miracles. His mercies are new every morning. His love endures forever. He provides strength for the weary. He hears our prayers. He will meet our needs. And ALL things will work out for the good of those that love Him.
This picture truly does represent a thousand words. The picture on the left is coach sitting up at the Mayo Clinic after just having an extremely difficult Whipple procedure, yet proudly displaying the team ball and jersey from his players back home. The picture on the right (exactly a year later) shows a pancreatic cancer survivor wearing the uniform and headed out the door to coach his players yet again.
We are overwhelmed with gratitude and praise to our loving Heavenly Father (“The Great League Commissioner”) for His continued blessings bestowed upon our family. And we feel so very loved and supported by our fans. Thank you for following our journey, for continued check-ins, for ongoing prayers, and for cheering us on. A new game is just beginning. ⚾️
Go ahead. Put yourself in coach; you’re ready to play!
Let’s keep playing ball and praising the Lord!

I have such fond memories of the many times Coach intersected with our lives and know he's in the game because of the tremendous work God does through him with young and old alike. Thank you for the updates.
