Sometime this season, Austin Nola’s picture made it to the side of T-Mobile Park, ensconced among franchise players like Marco Gonzales and Yusei Kikuchi. I know this because the last time I was there, I almost walked into two ladies on the sidewalk who were excitedly taking picture after picture of Austin Nola’s enormous visage. I wish now I had stopped and asked if they were family (how could they not have been family), and if so, congratulated them on Austin’s season. For as feel-good a story for us as Austin Nola is—career minor-league vet gets his MLB shot and earns regular playing time!
