MILWAUKEE – A big smile washes across Kolten Wong’s face.
Playing a friendly game of cards in the clubhouse before the St. Louis Cardinals’ game vs. the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park on Thursday, Wong is relaxed. The 24-year-old is enjoying this season as the everyday second baseman on the team with the best record in the baseball.
Wong’s first full year in the major leagues has been a real eye-opening experience as he’s battled adversity and yet improved on the diamond.
“It was not the year I was hoping for, but this being my first full season of playing every single day, it’s still a process of me learning how to get myself ready, how to get myself in the best possible position to succeed every day,” said Wong, former Kamehameha star.
