Dave
Simmons is more than a player. He has been a major
factor to this team from day one. He moved here from
Dallas in 1997 and was acquired through luck of the draw
when he was late for tryouts. The "Senators"
where called and asked if interested in looking at this
player. We took a chance and he has never disappointed
the team. Over the years, he has filled many roles
including starting pitcher, catcher, SS, third base and
outfield. However, he is still more than any utility
player. He starts anywhere asked on the field or in the
batting order. He has maintained one of the highest
batting averages over the years, has made the ALL-Star
team every year, remains the 3 hole hitter and has
always shown consistent defense on the diamond.
