COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- One of the most accomplished athletes to emerge from Texas A&M University's baseball program, Tyler Naquin isn't quite just one of the guys when he works out in the weight room with current Aggie players.
Sure, he blends in well with a dozen or so athletes who congregate for early-morning workouts at the state-of-the-art training facility in College Station. He often sneaks in, and no one realizes he's there.
Until he takes over the music selection.
"Then they'll look down and they know I'm in there," Naquin chuckled.
Beyond his third-place finish in American League Rookie of the Year voting in 2016 and his role in helping the Indians win their first pennant in more than a half-century, Naquin is known for his taste in tunes.
