Everything’s Rosy for Buster Posey

Fantastic catcher Buster Posey of Florida State has been voted as the nation’s top college baseball player…hands down. Consider these stats if you think he doesn’t deserve the accolades—nation’s No. 1 batting average of .460; nation’s No. 1 in home runs (26); nation’s No. 1 in RBIs (92); nation’s No. 1 in hits (114); nation’s No. 1 in runs (88); nation’s No. 1 in on-base percentage (.564); nation’s No. 1 in total bases (220). The 6-2, 220-pound Seminole is also one of the nation’s top defensive catchers, with only eight errors in 474 chances (.983). Earlier this year against Savannah State Posey played all nine positions in the game. He’s made eight appearances as a relief pitcher, earning six saves. Watch for him next year in a San Francisco Giants uniform. The Giants made him the number five pick in this month’s draft.
