Washington Nationals Minors: Big week for the Keister family

These are pretty heady times for Tripp Keister, the manager of Double-A Harrisburg in the Washington system.

And it is not just because veteran right-handed pitcher Joe Ross is slated to start in a rehab outing on Tuesday on City Island for the Senators.

Kevin Keister, the son of Tripp, is a starting second baseman for the University of Maryland.

The nationally-ranked Terps are 44-10 and won the regular-season title in the Big 10 Conference – the first conference title in 50 years for the program.

KEVIN KEISTER!!!!

A GRAND SLAM GIVES US THE LEAD!
