He felt it all, but most of all, the young Ugandan wanted to show everyone his skill.

Coming from playing on rough terrains to professional stadiums sounds like the plot of a movie but Kasumba made it all come true. “My first game was very, very good because I faced a pitcher who threw 95 [miles per hour ? about 153 kph], yeah. And I hit it. I need to hit because I am here to hit, to show my skill, I am ready to hit. I want to show I can hit. I want to show them I can throw,? he said recently.

MLB as well as baseball fans are certainly excited to see what this young man can do. It will be a career trajectory to follow because Kasumba Dennis is just getting started.
