Josh Stowers has exhibited some power during his freshman season with the University of Louisville baseball team. Lots of long balls but many of them for long outs, not reflecting his true potential.
He could not have picked a better day than Friday to take his game to another level, on a day when UofL was struggling in the opening game of a three-game series with Toledo.
The 6-foot sophomore outfield from Chicago would combine for two powerful home runs over the left field wall to power Louisville to a razor thin 5-4 win over the Rockets.
