""It's cool just being on the field, seeing Ichiro across the field... The kid in me loves that. Just never take that for granted.""
""It's cool being 19 and playing in a big league game, but there's not a big chance I'm going to play in Chicago this year being realistic.""
George Wolkow, a 19-year-old minor league player for the Chicago White Sox, made his presence felt in a Cactus League game, marking an important milestone in his young career. Standing at 6-7, Wolkow played as a minor league extra, coming off the bench and hitting a single against a major league pitcher. Drafted in the seventh round two years ago, he showed impressive stats but has a high strikeout rate he aims to reduce. He remains realistic about his chances of playing in the majors this year, appreciating the opportunity to compete.
