Former Alabama Infielder Hits First Double-A Home Run: Roll Call, April 30, 2025

Former Alabama shortstop Jim Jarvis notched a career milestone on Tuesday as he hit his first Double-A home run for the Detroit Tigers affiliated Erie SeaWolves.
Jarvis is batting .220 with 10 RBIs and two stolen bases on 59 plate appearances on the young season. The infielder was a particularly effective batter at the Capstone in two-strike situations, making it fitting that his first Double-A home run comes on a two-strike count.

Green Bay @packers’ pro bowl running back @iAM_JoshJacobs didn’t sleep in a bed his first few months at @AlabamaFTBL. He couldn’t get comfortable. Growing up he & his siblings slept in their car at times they were in between homes. Josh never saw it as strange.
