Player of the Day
JACK BRANNIGAN, SS, GREENSBORO
Brannigan kicked off the Greensboro scoring in a 12-5 victory with a grand slam in the first inning. It was his tenth homer of the year in 95 at-bats with High-A, after seven in Bradenton earlier in the year. Watch the shortstop watch the ball clear the left field wall.
