Former @TucsonBadgers and @ArizonaBaseball Chris Moon. Drafted by the @Braves , Chris gave up a promising game of baseball to defend our country. Heroes don’t hit balls over fences. Always honored to have my words associated with Chris on his monument. https://t.co/EizSisQ2c9 pic.twitter.com/g2JYHcLiuS
