More Aaron Holbert on Wikipedia.It was an awesome feeling, especially the way the guys reacted. All I could do when I got out to second base was look down at the ground in amazement.

They missed by two miles.
A lot of things are still the same.
But no matter what happens, there's a good chance I'll be back in the organization at Louisville. The grass isn't always greener. This organization's been good to me.
