League is about more than game for players with disabilities

The one-day spring training for this year's AMBUCS Challenger Baseball League was a first for the league since it began locally in 2004. And the seasoned batters and catchers – about 20 of the 90 who played last year – were as ready as the big leaguers reporting this month in Florida and Arizona, maybe more.
