Cape League Extra: Dustin Ackley settles in

Posted Jul 11, 2008

Coming off a successful season at North Carolina and another trip to the College World Series, Dustin Ackley arrived in Harwich last week and is already turning heads in the Cape League. It was a quick transition but Ackley wanted to get back on the field as soon as he could. “I had a couple days (at home),” Ackley said. “Not as much as I wanted, but I knew I had to get up here and start playing some more, get in the swing of the things.” (Cape Cod Times)
