| On
Thursday evening, April 29, San Francisco Giants rising star Nate Schierholtz
visited Sports Gallery Walnut Creek for a very cool signing appearance.
Watch
out for San Francisco Right Fielder Nate
Schierholtz in
2010. Drafted by the Giants in the 2003 MLB Draft, Schierholtz made his major
league debut on June 11, 2007, against the Toronto Blue Jays as a defensive replacement.
He got his first hit the next night in his first career at-bat. A member of the
2008 USA Olympic Team, the Giants and their fans have justifiably high hopes for
Nate. And on April 28th (a day before our signing) Schierholtz went a career-best
5 for 5 against the Philadelphia Phillies. Rising star indeed... |
| Hanging
at our Gallery for almost two hours, Nate was great, filling our store with smiles,
laughs and LOTS of Giants fans. And, of course, signing many cool Giants collectibles
along the way. It was a great evening for all of us at Sports Gallery, getting
to meet Nate and see how many Giants fans he has already won over. |
