Heels in the League 08/13/09 (MLB)
(MLB) - 08/13/09
In this one day late post (due to unforseen problems) here is the games from July 13, 2009 in this edition of “Heels in the League” (MLB). Besides the small recaps of the ex Diamond Heels (both in the Majors and minors) I am adding a link to the story about ex UNC first baseman Dustin Ackley and how is contract negotiations are going with his future club, the Seattle Mariners. So, sit back and enjoy both the recaps of the ex UNC players and the articles about the next player from Chapel Hill that I will be talking about soon enough…
