Another Barfield--Jeremy, coming up in June draft

Former major-leaguer Jesse Barfield's cell phone was busy at Petco Park on Monday as he watched his oldest son, Josh, make his major-league debut with the San Diego Padres.

While watching Josh, Jesse was getting updates on his cell phone as Josh's younger brother, Jeremy, hit a three-run home run to lead Klein High to a 4-3 victory. Major-league scouts have been busy following Jeremy, a 6-5, 235-pound slugger who will likely be taken early in the June draft.

"If there's a better high school hitter in Texas, I haven't seen him," Jesse told the Union-Tribune.

"Jeremy embarrasses me," added Josh. "He's more of pro-type player than me. And he puts on an impressive show." from the Houston Chronicle.
