I hope everything turns out for the best with this kid. It's unfortunate that he had the wrong adults influencing him from the beginning.

Little League officials cleared the player of any wrongdoing but banned both his father, Felipe de Jesus Almonte, and league founder Rolando Paulino for life. Today, Danny Almonte hates to talk about the scandal. "I don't care about it," he says through an interpreter before taking the field for the Monroe Eagles, who are ranked No. 1 in the state. "I just play hard."

How long has he been in this country that he still needs an interpreter??

He's only a sophomore in high school, how could you expect him to learn english?

I expect he'll learn enough sometime after his graduation.(maybe)
