Kenosha Native Gavin Lux Hits HR in First Playoff Game
Los Angeles Dodgers are an annoying franchise. Not only do they get major free agents, but they also have one of the best farm systems in baseball. They have a combination of the best things you want in the sport. One of their top prospects is Gavin Lux, the Kenosha native. He is doing Wisconsin proud as one of the promising young stars in baseball. Lux had a great September and made the NLDS roster. In his first postseason at-bat, Lux hit a home run and that’s the way you welcome yourself to the show.

There is something cool about seeing a Wisconsin athlete doing big things with no college affiliation. We do not see these men and women often, but when we do, Wisconsin should get behind them. Lux discussed how he wanted to play the Milwaukee Brewers, his hometown team, instead of the Washington Nationals before the game tonight. He is the future at shortstop for the Dodgers which is a rich thought considering they have Corey Seager who would probably start on 25 of the 30 teams in Major League Baseball. Speaking of which, I know a team that could use a shortstop next season.
