It isn’t often that players are able to make a seamless transition to Division-I baseball but Brock Rodden is a different story. The Shocker coaching staff believed in his offensive capabilities after two seasons at Seminole State College, enough to take a chance on the sophomore second baseman. He hasn’t looked back since.
Despite a midseason slump, Rodden is hitting .275 and has launched seven home runs this season, along with 22 RBI’s, which are both second best on the team. His .926 on-base plus slugging percentage is also second highest of any Shocker hitter, only trailing Chuck Ingram.
