Joe Benson goes 4-for-5 along with a walk-off single against Orioles
by Steve Painter | Thu, Apr 2nd 11:02pm EDT
He is now 7-for-17 this spring and in line to make the final roster as the backup center fielder for the Braves. He has come out of nowhere, having been stashed in the minor league camp most of Spring Training.
Fantasy Impact:
This has all the earmarks of the feel-good story of spring. This guy has been in the minors since 2006, except for a cup of coffee with the Twins in 2011, and he likely will be on the Braves final roster. He'll back up Eric Young if he makes the team.
