McDonald Returns to Phillies



Tracy Ringolsby of insidetherockies.com reports that baseball has regained the third member of Colorado’s McDonald family.

Outfielder Darin McDonald—younger brother of ex-big leaguers Donzell and Darnell McDonald—has left Wyoming, where he played college football, and rejoined the Phillies organization.

Just a year ago, the youngest McDonald quit baseball to pursue football at the University of Wyoming. He redshirted last fall, and now has decided to resume baseball after head coach Joe Glenn was replaced by Dave Christensen, former offensive coordinator at Missouri.

McDonald originally signed with the Phillies after being selected in the 12th round of the 2006 draft. He has hit .219/.279/.281 in 302 at-bats.
