Josh's story

Former Rays phenom Josh Hamilton, traded from the Reds to the Rangers during the winter, is offering more and more details of just how far he fell due to drugs and alcohol, and seems to find more and more strength in his faith,  and Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News does a nice job capturing Josh's story.

Comments

We still have the framed pictures on the wall of Josh's first spring AB as a Devil Ray. His Dad sat right behind us and talked about Josh the entire game. Seems like just yesterday. We'd love to see him have another major league AB as a Ray some day.
