Personal Note - Steve Potter
My family is in town to celebrate my daughter Michelleâs graduation from nursing school. Of course I had to show them the complex and watch a little bit of baseball đ¤. While there multiple players stopped by to say hello - Albert Jerez gave my grandson Isaac a pair of batting gloves and Edward Barboza gave him a bat - they made his day ! Thanks to them both đ¤đ.
