"I want to come home." After he was released by the Angels last season, Dalton Pompey got a call from the @GuelphRoyals of the IBL. Now playing one more season close to home, the former #BlueJays outfielder is ready to walk away from baseball on his terms.thestar.com/sports/bluejay…
Pompey had options to continue his baseball career — he had offers from teams in Korea and Taiwan — but chose to play one more season close to home before starting a career in emergency services, drawn to the idea of serving his community. thestar.com/sports/bluejay…
@StarSports @GuelphRoyals A career to be proud of. My 13U has his impact pic on his wall for hitting guidance.
@StarSports @GuelphRoyals All the best, to a fine human.
@StarSports @GuelphRoyals Was sad this kid couldn't stay with the #Jays as a regular. Showed lots of promise and was a good guy to cheer for. I thought he had a ton of potential for the @BlueJays . Wishing him all the best.
@StarSports @GuelphRoyals Great guy... best of luck.
@StarSports @GuelphRoyals Sounds like it was on the MLB’s terms
