“I have had the pleasure of competing against Jordan Walker for several years now and he is a personable, hard-working player who always gives his best. Twice he has beaten my team with late-inning home runs and had a huge smile on his face while running the bases—not gloating, but loving the sport like a little kid. I will miss the competition, but not his prowess over my pitchers.”
