Played baseball with Bradds and witnessed many of his home runs. Also, played softball with him and enjoyed his winning attitude. He always knew how to keep his teammates focused.

Bradds hit the longest homerun I ever saw live! Had to be 500 feet. Always knew how to get best out of his teammates! Wish I could play one more season with him!

I have many memories playing with Bradds. My two favorite are watching him throw a no hitter. He had 15 strikeouts and totally dominated the other team. The other was two grand slams in one game. I think he added a 3rd HR in that game. Lots of fun!

Had the most accurate throwing arm Ive ever seen. Behind the plate his defense was stellar. He was very aggressive at calling a game. Dude hit some tape measure homeruns! One of my favorite teammates ever.
