I can only imagine what it’s like being a big time professional athlete and then turning around to see your own child blaze his path in a sport.
The Hunter family of major league glory has entered that fray, accept this Hunter is not playing baseball.
USA Today is reporting that Torii Hunter Jr, son of Anaheim Angels star Torii Hunter has committed to play football at Notre Dame.
