Braves center fielder Michael Harris II joins Chris Dimino at Braves Fest 2024.
CHRIS DIMINO:
So how do you feel about where you are right now in your career? You don’t seem like a guy who wants to talk a lot about himself and I get that from you, but but how do you assess what you’ve been able to do so far?
MICHAEL HARRIS II:
I think it’s been, I think it’s been pretty smooth. I’m playing on a on a great team around a great group of guys, so I think it’s been pretty smooth for me and it’s been so easy because we’re having fun and winning a lot of games. So I guess I couldn’t ask for a better a better way for it to start. And yeah, that’s that’s pretty much why it’s been so smooth for me.
CHRIS DIMINO:
Some guys are fortunate enough to have it go smooth in their hometown. How about that part of it for you? I mean, I know that must mean a lot.
MICHAEL HARRIS II:
Yeah, that’s…that’s one of the biggest parts. I mean, I’m at home, I’m comfortable and I get to go home again, so I’m at home at the field, at home, at home. So I mean, it’s a dream come true to be here in front of these fans that I was once a part of. I was just in a Q&A and I told him it felt like I was in the stands with my jersey on. I just walked on the field and now I’m getting paid to do it. So it’s…it’s been a blessing and I’m glad.
