Seems like he might be on the shuttle between Montgomery and Durham again this season.

UW-La Crosse's Vinny Rottino went deep thrice on May 19.
Rottino hit his first career MLB homer, a two-out solo shot, off of Clayton Richard in the Mets' 9-0 win on May 26.

Eastern Mennonite catcher Erik Kratz hit his first MLB homer on May 22 against the Nationals' Tom Gorzelanny. It was a solo shot to straight-away center as a pinch hitter in the eighth at Citizens Bank Park.

UW-Stevens Point's Jordan Zimmermann beat Roy Halladay in that game by the way.

Charlie Furbush tossed two-thirds of an inning in Seattle's combined no-hitter against the Dodgers at Safeco Field on June 8. Furbush relieved Kevin Millwood in the seventh. Stephen Pryor (.1 IP), Lucas Luetge (.1), Brandon League (.2) and Tom Wilhelmsen (1) also played a part in the 1-0 win.

Something I didn't know. Several MLB umps attended institutions that are D-III currently.
Scott Barry, Olivet
CB Bucknor, Cortland St.
Marvin Hudson, Piedmont
Jeff Nelson, Bethel
Tim Tschida, St. Thomas

Bucknor was inducted into the Cortland hall of fame in 2002 and once held the program's stolen base record.

Hudson was honored with a Piedmont distinguished alumni award in 2007.
