Rusney Castillo Singles In Professional Debut
After a very long layoff, newly minted Red Sox CF Rusney Castillo has played in an actual baseball game. Castillo debuted for the Gulf Coast League Red Sox and singled in his first professional at-bat. He ultimately went 1-2 with a strikeout. He was also caught stealing. Said the $72.5 million-dollar-man, "I feel great. It was a good day. I’ve wanted this day to come for a long time now. It finally got here...My No. 1 objective would be to be the same player I’ve always been, to play my game and not try to do too much or try to become someone else." Hopefully, this is the first step to stardom.
