Rob n Robin Segedin Rock the Ravine

It must be some kind of emotional roller coaster to be the wife of a career minor league baseball player, pregnant, and not sure what the future holds for you one minute, and twenty-four hours later you’re the special guest of the Los Angeles Dodgers and watching your husband have as great a debut as anyone in LAD history.

As of this writing Rob Segedin already has four runs batted in, with two keys hits against one of the best pitchers in baseball. To be sure Segedin never faced anyone like David Price before, but unfazed he took Price off the center field wall with the bases loaded.  Enjoying all of this was his very pregnant wife Robin.

Rob n Robin, how quaint.

The future for Rob Segedin is hazy, but for one day in August, he was a puig of fresh air.  That little extra MLB check will surely put a smile on their faces because going from a minor league salary to the MLB minimum is just like winning a lottery ticket. Not to mention the free family health care for the rest of the year.

In a game where Brandon McCarthy lost his control, it takes a story like the Segedin’s to put the Dodgers back in control. I’m expecting them to win this game and end up one game back of the Giants.

What a bizarre year. Welcome to the LAD 2016.
