“If there was a first half MVP, it likely would have been @Sam_Harry8.”
The @SacStBaseball outfielder is hitting .439/.527/.642 this summer, still leading the @NWLbaseball in batting & hits a week after wrapping up his time with the @RochHonkers (as of 7/16).

“I don’t know if I would have gotten drafted if I didn’t go to Sac State or meet Reggie.” - Erick Dessens
Sacramento State had two players, Ethan Lay and Erick Dessens, who were drafted to the MLB. Both Lay and Dessens credit Sac State (@SacStBaseball) for making this possible.
Only two players in the greater Sacramento area were picked in the Major League Baseball draft, both from @SacStBaseball
Has Sacramento dried up baseball wise? No. But the draft has changed https://t.co/uX56EhyjsM
