It's pretty awesome that you were there for the Fernandez homer.
It was a fantastic game. It was Fernandez's last start of the season since the Marlins wanted to shut him down at 170 innings. I covered him in Single-A Jupiter last season and he was never expected to be in the majors this season. Even he did not expect it. I think Fernandez wen 7 IP with 8K and gave up one HR. He was angry about that... so he made up for it. Then all hell broke loose, which was fun, too. I'll have to see if I can post one of the photos from the fracas.
Sports journalism. The NHL is the sport I predominantly cover, although I get to do baseball every now and then. I covered a lot of baseball for ESPN's wire service during summers in college. Lots of fun. Jupiter tops Mother Nature, St. Lucie Though innings limit near, Jose Fernandez is Marlins big draw
Cool. I read of few of your pieces for the Panthers. The recent piece on Thomas was a great read. Hopefully, there will be more good news for you to report this year after last year's giant step back (but I kind of doubt it). I think that both FL teams added can't miss type players in the draft, but that both teams still have some major issues defensively (that's why I was kind of taken aback that both passed on Jones, who I think will be a stud). Anyway, I'll get to see them a lot more than in the past now that Detroit (my home town) is in their division, although I definitely feel bad for both teams with the new alignment. The new Atlantic is a beast, and the FL teams may get beat up on quite a bit. But still, it's always fun to get to watch Stamkos, which I have missed out on quite a bit.
