One for Alonzo!

Yet another moving moment at a Cleveland Indians' Game. Many moments, really! Little Alonzo Fragoso, of Las Vegas, asked to go to an Indians' game and meet his favorite players as his "make-a-wish' request!

So sure enough, Saturday, Alonzo and his family were treated to an Indians game with all the trimmings. Alonzo got to shag fly balls before the game, hit against his favorite pitchers, hung out with the guys in the clubhouse, tossed out the first pitch to one of his heroes, Victor Martinez, and even announced an inning with public address announcer Bob Tayek!

Centerfielder Grady Sizemore asked Alonzo for HIS autograph!

Alonzo said his little league team back in Las Vegas is, what else, the Cleveland Indians!

Alonzo brought the Indians good luck. They won against the Texas Rangers after losing 7 in a row!

The Indians made one of Alonzo's dreams come true. But it looks like little Alonzo gave the Indians' and the sell-out crowd the boost they needed too!

Thanks, Alonzo! You are a hero and a true inspiration to all of us!
