Dansby Swanson and family regale chamber crowd at Roxy Theatre

Feb. 15—CUMBERLAND — Still basking in the glow of his World Series victory, hometown hero Dansby Swanson and his immediate family gave an intimate and, at times, laugh-out-loud account of his path to stardom at the Roxy Theatre Monday morning.

The 28-year-old Marietta High School graduate, turned Atlanta Braves shortstop, turned MLB champion acknowledged life in the spotlight wasn't always easy.

"I'll tell you, you can't get away with anything, because everybody knows you. So if you do anything bad, you get in trouble," he said, smiling.

"Let me stop you right there," his older brother Chase Swanson said, jumping in.
