Josh Jung has begun his professional career in the same way he finished his time as a Red Raider; by being a star at the plate. Thus far, he is hitting .500 with a homer and three RBI after his first two games with the Texas Rangers’ Arizona League team following a junior season in which he helped the Texas Tech baseball team reach the College World Series for the second-consecutive year.
Jung began his professional debut by launching a two-run homer to left-center in his first at-bat Wednesday night. Making the moment even more special was the fact that his college head coach, Tim Tadlock, was on hand to witness the moment and record it for us to enjoy.
