A former Giants wide receiver is heading to the diamond.
Golden Tate last played with Big Blue (or anyone in the regular season for that matter) in 2020. And now he will play in the West Coast League, a collegiate summer baseball league. Despite the fact he is 33-years-old and a lapsed professional football player.
Tate has signed with the Port Angeles Lefties. The club is located in Washington state, across the Salish Sea from British Columbia. Tate is the first former NFL player to participate in the league; he is expected to start in center field for the Lefties on Tuesday night in a big tilt against the Bend Elks.
