“It was an incredible experience,” Sheets said Friday during a conference call. “The guys here were fantastic, each and every one of them came up to me, gave me a congratulations, told me hello. And walking into the coaches office and seeing (manager) Tony (La Russa) there and all the other coaches there with a smile on their face as well, it was an incredible moment and one I’ll never forget.
Sheets, an infielder/outfielder who did not play in 2020 after the cancellation of the minor-league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic, has a .319/.360/.500 slash line with five doubles, four home runs, 20 RBIs and 11 runs in 23 games with Charlotte.
