poles and snag it for an out Later in right field Kelly showed his catching skills weren an accident as he grabbed a shot that would have been at least a double if not for him They may just be small ac complishments but going in with guys several years older than yourself and being able to con tribute won t be easy to forget especially for Kelly By the way specials thanks goes out to the coaches
