The truth is, you re not supposed to get to the top by playing at a Division II college. But then, that all doesn t matter to Willie Harris. True, true, says Harris when asked about his route to professional ball. It s all baseball. Everybody s got to do the same things, the little things and every now and then have a big day.
Big days are a thing Harris has become known for.
But even with all that Harris accomplished in the Sally League, it wasn t until he became a late replacement in the Arizona Fall League that Harris really began to make people take notice. Sally Leaguers should be overmatched at Arizona. Willie Harris hit .300. I went out and did as well as I did. I did well out there.
