On Monday afternoon, Florida State’s first new baseball coach in 40 years made his debut and unveiled plans for the future. During his first press conference as manager, Mike Martin, Jr. was very explicit in how he plans to differentiate himself from his father.
As it was brought up in the presser and several readers have asked, he explained where his nickname Meat came from. Since he was in kindergarten he has always been called Meat and even wrote it on his papers as he went through school, this was because he had always been thin and needed to put meat on his bones.
