Big news here in Hawaii.
He's a University of Hawaii legend around here, and a genuinely good guy and very down to earth.
It's good to have some positive sports news about a great local athlete after the Manti Teo mess.
Too bad for Wong that Matt Carpenter is having an awesome season.

He's an Advocare unpaid endorser so I've always pulled for him. Seems like a good kid who plays the game the right way. Glad to see him make the show, here's to a successful stretch run with the red birds.

Seems like a good kid

I got his Bowman Rookie I think...

That was the Jake Arrieta that never reached his potential with the O's.
Should be a #2 guy. Just never got there.

Wong will be alright.
He's got a great bat.

Wong will be alright.
He's got a great bat.

And a great glove. Turned two seamless double plays yesterday.

 

[David K.]

I remember a player going 0 for 44 in his first start in the majors........and now hes in the HOF...The Great Willie Mays! and I'm not saying Wong will be in the HOF, be its to early to judge a player in his first game!! Best regards, David

 

[David K.]

And George.....thats a beautiful card of Wong! Best regards, David

 

[PoseyBuster]

Did you mean 0 for 4?
Mays went hitless in his first 12 MLB, then hit a homer off Warren Spahn in his 13th at bat. Then he won Rookie of the Year.

 

[Junior Griffey]

He meant 0-44 in his debut. It was the longest game in the history of the world!

Har dee har har. I thought he may have meant 0-44 to start his career.
Dozens of Hall of Famers have gone hitless in their first game.
