AUBURN, Ala. - Yes, Eddy Ketelhut loves softball. And yes, his 5-year-old son's name is Easton, as in the bat manufacturer. But, no, Eddy did not name his son after a softball bat. His wife, Sarah, did.
"That was my wife's idea," said the Auburn assistant coach, acknowledging the link between the name and the bat. "She's a big softball nut as well."
The Ketelhut family joined the Auburn family in January, when Mickey Dean hired Eddy to instruct the Tigers' hitters.
"Eddy is a workhorse," Dean said.
