The third time was the charm for Colorado Rockies minor league outfielder Max White with the Asheville Tourists in 2015.
Scottsdale, Ariz. -- When the Colorado Rockies selected outfielder Max White in the second round of 2012's MLB Draft out of a high school in Williston, Florida, they probably didn't count on him spending three consecutive years in Low-A Asheville, especially as a left-handed hitter with a favorable home short porch at the town's historic McCormick Field.
And yet here we are, 246 games and 973 plate appearances later, with White (likely) having finally graduated from Asheville after three cracks at the South Atlantic League.
