Patrick Craft joins BPC Barons

In his career as a Toombs County Bulldogs and before that as a TCMS Bullpup Patrick Craft has always done the little things to help his team win ballgames. Craft finished his varsity career with 49 walks and as a .380 lifetime hitter, with two seasons at .392 and .393, he always maintained an on-base percentage around .500. It was these attributes as an offensive player that impressed Brewton-Parker College head baseball coach Boo Mullins and his assistant, former Baron and Appling County Pirate, Kale Lewis, who attended Craft's signing to play at BPC. Y-101 Story As a sophomore and a junior Craft hit ninth in the Bulldog lineup and whether by walk or base hit started many amazing TCHS comebacks by simply getting on base. As a senior Craft hit first and second and in the middle of the lineup and hit .330. Patrick was also versatile as a defensive player. He played primarily right field and also center field, first base and catcher and he even pitched an inning. Craft's goals for his Baron career include earning playing time for a program that has earned to straight trips to the NAIA National Tournament and to do what he did in high school against college pitching.
