Some of the Best Baseball in the World....

So, you might think that the Nashville Sounds club is just another minor league ball team. Re-think that.

In a recent home series against Okla. City, 26 of the 48 players on the two rosters spent time in the major leagues last year, with a total of 12 big league teams.

Both teams rosters in this series were filled with some of the best players in the world- from all over the world (six countries and one territory, Puerto Rico).

In addition, seven players who began the season with the Sounds have been called up and are currently with the Brewers. From last years Sounds team, shortstop Alcides Escobar, only 24 years old, now starts for the Brewers and is considered one of the rising superstars of the majors. Not to mention Brewers superstars Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun.

For any baseball fan, the names of major leaguers in this Nashville-Okla. City series were evident: Garko, Nelson Cruz (former Sound and AL All-Star last season), Chris Davis (21 HRs last year for the Rangers), and Jarrod Saltalamacchia- yes, he has the longest name in the history of the major leagues, unofficially.

Two coaches in the series are former major leaguers as well- Sounds manager Don Money and pitching coach Rich Gale.

Essentially, Sounds baseball is some of the best baseball in the world. Period.
