My @goodreads review of The Power and the Glory by Jonathan Wilson: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ goodreads.com/review/show/84…

@jcmeggs Didn't quite end up living up to the hype that he came in with but a solid player, especially defensively.

I very vividly remember watching Heyward make his debut for the Braves and hitting that HR in his first at-bat. Time flies.
