PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Scott Kingery is one of the Phillies top prospects, enjoying an outstanding season for Double-A Reading. But this is just the latest entry in what is already a very impressive baseball resume.
Kingery’s first taste of high level baseball came back in 2006 when he played in the Little League World Series with a team from Phoenix, Arizona. Then he had an outstanding run at Mountain Pointe High School in Arizona. But despite that, Kingery says he didn’t get any Division I college scholarship offers, so he decided to roll the dice as a walk-on at the University of Arizona.
