Former UNCW baseball player homers for first MLB hit

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Former UNCW baseball player, Greg Jones, finally has his first major league hit — and it was a big one.
Jones hit a home run Monday night in the Rockies 9-5 loss to the Dodgers.
He is the 14th UNCW baseball alum to reach the big leagues.
Jones was the highest draft pick in UNCW baseball history when he was selected 22nd overall by the Tampa Bay Rays in 2019.
