In his first All-Star game, Adam Jones had the Game-winning Sac-fly for the American League.
I thought it was pretty exciting as a Baltimore sports fan watching Jones get introduced.
Jones turns 24 on August 1st, and this will obviously only be the first of many appearances. Having Jones say that he was happy the game was in a NL park, so that he could wear the away jersey and honor the City of Baltimore shows a maturity beyond his years, and a great addition to his vast physical skills.
I look forward to Andy MacPhail locking up Jones long-term and past his arbitration years this off-season.
As enjoyable as it was watching Jones get introudced last night, it will be even better in the future when he is introduced with fellow Orioles Wieters, Markakis, Matusz, and Tillman.
