We had a great week of camp with over 65 campers. Loved the hard work and energy that was brought this week. The future looks bright!

We are excited for Colton and proud of him as well. We can’t wait to see what he will accomplish at the next level. Congratulations!

@MLBONFOX That is awesome. The future Pope and Bobby Jenks on the mound RIP.

Before he became the Pope, he was cheering on the White Sox at Game 1 of the 2005 World Series on FOX 🙌
