It finally happened. After 15 long years riding the bus in the minor leagues throughout the U.S. and Mexico, J.C. Boscan became a major-leaguer. October 1, 2010. Bobby Cox tapped the kid on the shoulder and sent him out to catch the 9th inning against the Phillies in Atlanta.
After catching a scoreless 9th from pitcher Mike Minor, including the last two via strikeout, J.C. had the opportunity to come up to bat in the bottom of the inning, with runners at 1st and 3rd. Seven pitches later, he had earned a walk, forcing the bases loaded.
J.C. then had to show off the speed as he scored from first on a 3-run double by Derrick Lee. (if you ask me, he probably floated around the bases he was so pumped)
Congrats J.C. Welcome to the show. LINK to the boxscore.
