Jesse Holt

Catcher for the Everett Mills, No. 27. Big, quiet, and immovable — the kind of steady that comes from farm work and open country, not a weight room. His grandparents picked the wheat fields east of the Cascades; his family bought the land they worked. He chose baseball because it was the one thing entirely his own. Sends his mother a sunset photo after every road game. Means every word he says, which is why he says so few of them.
