After getting selected by the Washington Nationals in the third round (No. 84 overall) of last week's Major League Baseball draft, Urbana High graduate Trey Lipscomb is the guest this week on The Final Score podcast.
Lipscomb chats with host Greg Swatek about the moment he got drafted and what it meant to him and his family. He also talks about the significance to him and his family about getting drafted by a team that's less than an hour's drive from where they live.
He also talks about moving from shortstop to third base at the University of Tennessee, sitting behind two All-Americans with the Volunteers and what that did to his mindset, what his first purchase might be after signing a lucrative first contract with the Nats and what he's up to these days training at the team facility in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Plus, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy weighs in on Lipscomb's future with the Nationals, plus Francis Scott Key Post 11's state legion baseball championship.
