(BY CHELSA MESSINGER, Correspondent) In June of 1999, a dimpled, 9-year-old Jake Buchanan couldn't stop smiling. His Dixie Youth Baseball team had just won the state championship by one run, qualifying them for the Dixie Youth World Series in Terrell, Texas."We dog-piled. Everyone ran out to the pitcher's mound as soon as we knew we knew we were going to the World Series," said Eric Downs, one of Buchanan's teammates on the Dallas 10-and-under all-star team.
