choke up

Patricia Lynch, 76, stood on her front porch in her quiet neighborhood near Reno High School and choked up talking about how, decades ago, she too had spoke out about abortion rights.

“I know it sounds so simple and naive, but I don’t understand how the bad guy keeps winning,” she says, choking up, her soft voice tinged with disbelief.

“When I sort of fully realised, ‘oh, this is gonna work’, I honestly choked up a little bit,” he says.

Outfielder Teoscar Hernández was the most emotional speaker, getting choked up at the end of his first season with the team.

As he stood on the field Sunday night, the whirlwind of it all left him almost choked up.
