Big Shout out to Gamespeed’s own Brandon Crawford. The twenty- five year old shortstop sensation made stellar defensive plays to help the Giants to a World Series win over Detroit. A GS athlete since the age of thirteen and just recently graced our doors this summer. The type of champion we like to see low key, humble, but fiercely motivated. Great job, a great year and to top it off the real win will be the upcoming birth of your baby girl. Enjoy!
Brandon is actually the second athlete in GS history to play in the World Series. The first was Antioch native Aaron Miles who played in the 2006 series at second base for the Championship Cardinals.
Aaron just recently retired after a nine year MLB career. Read the story here: http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/06/13/aaron-miles-opts-for-retirement/.
