    Davis credits his fans for helping him get through what has been at times a difficult season. "Those guys (the fans) are awesome ... It would be have been easy for a lot of them to write me off...I saw a lot of people up in Oklahoma City, supporting me and telling me they wanted me back (in the big leagues). That helped keep me in a positive mindframe and working hard to get back here." One of those supportive fans at Sunday's game was Longview's Steve Swain, who said his son Dillon played baseball with Davis when the two were growing up. Full Article at Longview News-Journal

Infielder thanks fans for support
  1. I'm happy with the way I've progressed, but I think I still have a long way to go ... I missed a routine groundball (today) and that was the game. We had the momentum (with) two outs. That play has to be made, but that's the way the game goes sometimes.

  2. I think it's a huge honor that they would want to recognize him, and the fact that they recognize that he's a good person as well as a ballplayer ... They are supporting him through the good and the bad. That's huge, and that's a big reason why he's been able to accomplish what he has this year.
