Summary
Detroit Tigers rookie Kevin McGonigle is lighting up the majors after a lightning-fast jump from Double-A, posting an OPS of .812 in 93 games and earning an All-Star nod. The honor was extra sweet playing in Philly — his hometown — where he got a heartfelt hug from childhood idol Chase Utley, who he grew up watching. Though he didn’t start the game, McGonigle shined at shortstop, proving he’s ready for the big stage at just 21. With Utley’s peak coming in his mid-20s, McGonigle’s early surge could be the start of something special. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
