Red Sox Call Up Milton Native from the Minors

The Milton native made his major league debut.

Last Friday, the Red Sox called up Alex Hassan, Milton native, to start in right field, reported the Boston Globe, to make his major league debut. Hassan also hit his first major league hit, and the Sox won that night. 

As reported on soxprospects.com, "A two-way player in college, Hassan was drafted as a pitcher but impressed enough in the Cape Cod League in 2009 that the organization decided he may be better suited as an outfielder."
