He Was A Rockie?

He Was A Rockie? - Mike Kingery
Not to be confused with the radio announcer Jeff Kingery...Mike played for the Rockies during the 1994 and 1995 seasons. He was an outfielder who played Center for the majority of his Rockies career. He played in 224 games and batted .349 in 1994. Not really a power guy he was basically just the epitome of hustle. He played the game right as they say and was an early favorite of mine when I adopted the Roxs back in 93. Basically a journeyman player who started in KC, then to Seattle, then San Fran, then Oak, then the Roxs and finally finished his career in Pittsburg. Got to play in the Wild Card series with the Roxs and that was that.
