FLORENCE — Grinders Sports takes its name from “the way I play the game, grind it out every day,” Kelly Stinnett, a retired major-league baseball catcher, told the Florence Town Council.
“I may not be the best, but you show up every day, prepare yourself, and get ready to play,” said Stinnett, who played 14 years in the majors, including four with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Stinnett and Lyndon Estill, who played four seasons of minor-league baseball, spoke to the council Monday about their plans for a major sports training and entertainment venue northwest of downtown Florence.
