Legends visit BCTC Class

Lexington Legends players Arcenio Leon and Reinaldo Pestana stopped in to talk with Gil Rosenberg's sociology class at Bluegrass Community and Technical College. It was a question and answer session for the class and the players. Arcenio and Ray participated in ESL classes during this past summer with Gil as their teacher. While they have learned a lot more English, Gil invited a translator to participate. Fred deRossett, Spanish language professor from Berea College helped the players and the class understand each other. Both players answered questions about their favorite baseball players and about living in Lexington. As part of Arcenio's "graduation speech" he told the class in English, "You are welcome to come to Friday night's game. I will leave tickets for you if you give me your name."
It was evident in the many smiles that the Legends players and Gil's class enjoyed meeting each other.
