Here's what makes TJ Price a 'baseball junkie'

DALEVILLE, Ind. — It doesn't take long to understand why Daleville coach Terry Turner calls TJ Price a baseball junkie.

During study hall, while other kids are in the books or just messing around, the senior often watches baseball highlights on YouTube.

And he's not into the home runs, walk-off game-winners and players stealing third like you might expect. He likes watching shortstops scoop up ground balls and convert them into outs.

"I'm always watching Francisco Lindor, Troy Tulowitzki, Derek Jeter, nonstop," Price said. "I love it, I can't get enough of it."
