That's a great sports name.

That's a great sports name.

 

To add, he's a good kid too...

Ricky Raisor is going to be a really good pitcher at the varsity level down the road. Hard thrower and knows how to pitch. Has grown to be around six foot or a little bigger which has really added (along with his off season workouts) velocity to an already live fastball.
