Kids TALK BACK

--Photos and interviews by Bryce Alderton

The Daily Pilot went to Mariners Park in Newport Beach to ask

children, “If you were given the opportunity to do one thing tomorrow

that you’ve never done before, what would you do?”

“Practice with professional ballplayers for baseball and meet them --

Ivan Rodriguez because I’ve played catcher, Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez

and Pedro Martinez. Baseball is my favorite sport.”

Ryan Albert, 9, Newport Beach

“Practice with professional soccer players. I love soccer. I’d like to

meet Cobi Jones. He’s really good.”

Malcolm Faigen, 8, Newport Beach

“Skydive or something, to see a bird’s eye view. It’s high up there.”

Rocky Muniz, 10, Costa Mesa

“Be a player in the NHL. I like to watch hockey, I have a computer

game of it, and it’s fun to play.”

Harrison Faigen, 10, Newport Beach

“Play flag football. I like wrestling stuff, knocking people down,

kicking stuff.”

Daniel Albert, 7, Costa Mesa
