Folks....find it and watch it. Randy Johnson just ended his Hall of Fame speech by talking about Zach Farmer and saying he loves him and wishes him the best.
Must must watch. Find it and watch it.

Re: Piketon's Zach Farmer
One of my favorite memories of Zach..
I was coaching JV baseball for Alexander.. We traveled to Piketon and were in a pretty tight game.. Zach was warming up off to the side in a bullpen.. He was throwing gas and I instantly knew it was game over if they brought him in the game.. He was wearing baseball pants and some sort of Piketon hoodie or jacket.. I asked their coach "is that your closer?" To which he replied.. "Oh no.. He's only an 8th grader."
I knew he was too talented to play JV ball.

Tremendous pitcher and even better person.
