How Marlins' Joe Mack hit a home run that Buffalo sports fans everywhere will appreciate
On paper, there wouldn't be much reason for baseball fans in Buffalo and the whole of Western New York to be watching the Miami Marlins take on the (formerly Oakland) A's on Saturday.But on the lineup card? There were two names, both catchers, who made it clearly worthwhile.The Miami Marlins had Joe Mack in the lineup.For the Athletics? Jonah Heim.Together, the two catches are representing the Buffalo area quite well.Mack went to Williamsville East High School and was a first-round pick directly from that level.Heim went to Amherst, from which he was a fourth-round pick.Both players were so impressive in WNY that they didn't even need college baseball to be chosen quite high and sign professionally.On Saturday, with Heim catching, Mack launched a home run.Absolutely iMACKulate pic.twitter.
