welcome to the …
Well, OK, it wasn’t The Show. It was just a spring training game at Turner Field. But, hey, it surely felt big-time for Mauro Gomez, who blasted a walk-off two-run homer for Atlanta tonight to beat Minnesota. It was the first big-league at-bat this spring for Gomez, who hit 16 homers for the Mississippi Braves last summer. There’s a chance he’ll be back in Pearl next week. He’s got power, that’s for certain. Gomez’s homer, incidentally, came off former M-Braves lefty Chuck James, who is trying to resurrect his career in the Twins’ system.
