Josh Hamilton on ESPN’s Homecoming
Major League baseball star and Raleigh native Josh Hamilton is appearing on ESPN’s “Homecoming with Rick Reilly” Wednesday night (April 22) at 7pm.
Hamilton returned to Raleigh with Reilly and the ESPN film crew back in October to visit Athens High School and film footage for the show.
Hamilton, who currently plays for the Texas Rangers, had a great 2008 season and broke Bobby Abreau’s record for most homeruns hit in the first round of the Home Run Derby.
In addition the April 22 7pm showing on ESPN, the Hamilton espisode will re-air on ESPN CLASSIC on Friday, May 1 and Sunday, May 3.
Josh Hamilton said he has bruised ribs after crashing into the center-field wall while chasing down an Alex Rios double Tuesday night. Hamilton said he essentially elbowed himself in the rib cage when he hit the wall in the third inning.
He wanted to play today, but manager Ron Washington gave him a day off. Hamilton was probably going to get one off this series, but he expects to be back in the lineup Thursday.
