“ The manager of Visalia let me know after Sundays game that I was heading up to Hillsboro. The only thing going through my mind was just happy to climb another level and getting one step closer to my goal.”
“Yeah I spent most of spring training with the guys up here so it didn’t take long for things to click again with them. Anytime you’re in the lineup with a new team it can be a little nerve wracking, but I just remind myself that I’m playing baseball and there’s nothing to be nervous about.”
“ Yeah a great feeling to have a good debut on the new team.”
