This is your Liberty Flames Minute! Brought to you by Select Bank for this Wednesday, June 28, 2023, I'm Nick Pierce.
Former Liberty baseball infielder Will Wagner is working to get back on the field for the Houston Astros' farm system. Wagner was playing for the AA Corpus Christi Hooks in May when he suffered an injury.
"It's kind of crazy because I've had this wrist pain for every year I've played baseball, and I've had it for two weeks and I'm playing through it and I'm like, 'Ok, it's going to go away.' then just on a swing my whole hand popped. So, my hamate bone broke – broke straight off, so, yeah, had a clean and easy surgery and it all went well."
Wagner is currently rehabbing in West Palm Beach, Fla. and hopes to be back on the field in about three weeks. He was hitting .270 with two homers in 20 games for Corpus Christi at the time of his injury. You can hear the full conversation with Wagner on the Liberty Flames Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're now just 66 days away from Flames football. Liberty opens the season at home against Bowling Green on September 2nd.
