EducatedBet…All 9!

Buster Posey was all over the field for Florida State.

The Seminoles catcher played all nine defensive positions — and hit a grand slam — in a 10-0 seven-inning victory over Savannah State on Monday. Posey, a junior who’s expected to be a high pick in Major League Baseball’s amateur draft in June, became the fourth Seminoles player under coach Mike Martin to play all nine positions. Mike Martin Jr., the coach’s son, was the last to perform the feat in 1994.

Posey, 1-for-3 with four RBIs and two runs scored, started the game at his usual spot behind the plate, moved to first base in the second, second base in the third, shortstop in the fourth and third base in the fifth. He went to left field in the sixth and shifted over to center with two outs. Posey, who has also closed for the Seminoles, took the mound in the seventh and struck out both batters he faced before moving to right field for the final out of the inning.

This is pretty sweet, the way that they could use this kid in any position on the field and he would not hurt them at all. When I watched this on sportscenter I was shocked. He did this all in 7 innings which is even more remarkable and when he pitched he struck some dude out. Good for this kid and I think that he will be a very good major leauger!
