Joey Bart is ticketed to start the 2019 season at High-A San Jose. But it's March 11 and he's still in big-league camp.
The 2018 No. 2 overall pick is holding his own, and on Monday, Bart announced his presence in the Giants-Dodgers rivalry.
With two outs in the top of the ninth and the scored tied 1-1 in Camelback Ranch, Bart did this:

The team's top prospect delivered a bases-clearing double to give the Giants a 4-1 lead and eventual win.

In 10 games this spring, Bart has seven hits in 14 at-bats, including two doubles and one home run. With his three RBI on Monday, he's now driven in a team-high six RBI.
Giants fans have reason to be excited with Bart. In 45 games for Short-A Salem-Keizer last year, the Georgia Teach product tore up the Northwest League to the tune of .298 with 14 doubles, 13 home runs and 39 RBI.

Bart could be on the fast track to San Francisco, so we suggest going to San Jose early in the minor league season to watch him before the Giants promote him to Double-A Richmond.
