The AA affiliate of the Atlanta Braves – the Mississippi Braves – are a long way from home right now and involved in a contest against the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp.
However, there’s another game in progress as well… one in stands where a number of high-level baseball scouts are making notes.
That’s the word tonight from M-Braves broadcaster Chris Harris:
By the way…There are scouts representing nine MLB teams watching the M-Braves tonight.

Chris would know: one of the duties of the broadcaster – particularly when on the road – is to help coordinate media visits and visitors of all kinds.
