Career:
Brian
developed his skills while playing in Pacific
Coast League out in California. Originally
known as “Fleet” for his incredible speed, the
term now appears to more accurately describe his
resemblance in size to a fleet of ships. Brian
has spent the last three years traveling from
California to Connecticut with stops in the
Midwest playing on a number of local teams under
various names including “Pills” for his
resemblance to the Pillsbury Doughboy, Trench
and Chak-Sa from the Cherokee for “Silent Storm”
which accurately describes his ferocious swings
that are so rarely followed by the sound of the
ball actually hitting the bat. |
