Gallagher: Ontario teen Corson Scobie turning heads with his play
“When Corson Scobie (Renfrew, Ont.) was enrolled in T-Ball by his parents Lindsay and Jeremy, he hated it -- to their surprise.
A few years later, he wanted to get back into baseball again and he's been loving it ever since.
While many kids were watching cartoons, this lad from the Upper Ottawa Valley town of Renfrew grew up more attuned to watching baseball highlights on TSN Sports Centre -- on repeat.
As he gets older and older, he's thinking of professional baseball and the majors. First things first, though, he wants to get playing for a U.S. university or college.”
