Doe makes big impact with Kernels
Brett Doe did not make the trip north to Cedar Rapids out of spring training with his friends and teammates when they broke camp to start the 2015 baseball season, a fact that was “pretty disheartening,” Doe said Saturday.
A couple of weeks into the season, however, Doe got the call to join the Kernels when Jorge Fernandez went on the Disabled List with a concussion.
Since then, Doe has hit .333 and has stepped in to make a critical contribution to the Kernels’ offense as they attempt to zero in on a top-two finish in the Midwest League’s Western Division first-half standings and the postseason berth that comes with it.
The Kernels took a step in the right direction Saturday night with a 3-1 victory over Lansing at Veterans Memorial Stadium.
Doe has made an important contribution to the Kernels since joining the club.
