Former Savannah Sand Gnat shortstop, Ian Desmond, made his debut yesterday(9-10-09) with the Washington Nationals and helped to beat the Phillies, 8-7. Desmond was 2for4, homered and drove in four runs.
Desmond played shortstop for the Savannah Sand Gnats during the 2005 season. He appeared in 73 games for the Gnats, hit 10 doubles, 2 triples, 4 homeruns, and batted .247.
On September 20, Desmond will celebrate his 24th birthday.
The 2005 season was my first year as a season ticket holder with the Sand Gnats. Several players from that team are currently playing for the Nationals, including Ryan Zimmerman.
