Player Biography

How did you get into baseball/did you join Moss Shields? I was Sunday cruising in my Octavia with the windows down and AC/DC caressing the sweet air waves of spring as a waft of sensual smells fish hooked my nostrils and forced my steering wheel to bust a righty. It was the old familiar smell of broken in leather and tobacco spit, hotdogs and sweat. On an old dirt field on Jeløy is where I first laid eyes upon the team I soon got to know as the Moss Shields.
