PROUD DAD MOMENT ๐ฅนโค๏ธ
Brian Miller is a photographer and lifelong Braves fan whoโs been collecting cards since the early 1980s. His son, Cody, became a Braves fan because of his pops.
Flash forward, Cody Miller is now a big leaguer for their favorite team. And to top it off, his first professional baseball card features a photo his dad took ๐ธ๐ฅ
โI didnโt think I could climb any higher than cloud nine, but I think I just did!โ โค๏ธ
Codyโs 1st Bowman autograph card will arrive in 2025 Bowman Draft on January 14 ๐๏ธ

Greg Farone is on fire to begin his first full pro season. He's struck out nine batters in five scoreless innings of one-hit ball with just two walks allowed.
His numbers so far: 12.2 IP, 0.71 ERA (1 ER), 5 BB, 23 K, 1.03 WHIP
In a compelling game that featured 5 lead changes, No.23 @CNBaseball wins the first of three games against No.5 Lenoir-Rhyne by the score of 10-9. There's a reason this was a series to watch pick by us.
Each team scored at least one run in the 5th through 8th innings, but it was a Cole Nathan RBI single that pushed Carson-Newman ahead in the 8th.
Nathan went 3-for-5 with a double, triple, and 4 RBI.
Aiden Gibson had a 3-run home run.

In another series to watch picks, @CNBaseball turned the tide in the doubleheader, winning both games to win the series two games to one, which aged like a fine wine.
Kolton Casson pitching a complete game 2-hitter to clinch that series win, excellent job by him.
Cole Nathan recorded at least one hit in each game of the series, including 3 RBI, one coming off the go-ahead single in the final game of the series.
Carson-Newman is now 12-2 and heads home for a midweek against Young Harris and a weekend set against Lincoln Memorial.

Greg Farone, the 2022 @NJCAABaseball Division III Pitcher of the Year, was drafted in the seventh round by the @SFGiants!
Farone becomes the highest MLB Draft Pick by a Herkimer player!
The #SFGiants take LHP Greg Farone out of Alabama in the 7th round. He had a 5.02 ERA in 71.2 innings this season. The division in which he played in (SEC) is one of the toughest in college baseball. Low-to-mid 90's FB with a CB, SL, CHU. Easy/repeatable delivery.
