On Wednesday, Minnesota Twins scouting director Sean Johnson will work a pitching camp for Brent Kemnitz, just like Johnson did when he caught bullpens at Wichita State.
“It’s the only one-day pitching camp in history you’ve got a scouting director working,” said Kemnitz, WSU’s former pitching coach. “When I found out he got the job, I was texting him and he was like ‘Hey, I think I can still work your pitching camps.’ ”
Five months from making the No. 1 pick in the draft, Johnson will spend three hours at the Wichita Sports Forum, because it’s what he’s always done during his trip home for the holidays.
