From the Haugen Heart

I wrote something about Jed Lowrie last year and realized I was long overdue for an update. Jed is a Salem native, now playing for the Boston Red Sox . This is a portrait I did of him and his family when he was 10. The Red Sox placed shortstop, Julio Lugo, on the disabled list in July and called up Jed from Pawtucket (AAA). He has a .260 batting average, 2 home runs and 44 RBI’s for the Red Sox.

Way to go Jed! It is really fun to see when one of our clients does great things. Jed Lowrie (North Salem class of 2001) got drafted by the Boston Red Sox just three years ago. He has been playing single A and double A ball for their organization and we just got word that he has been moved to their AAA Pawtucket team! If you have seen as many great baseball movies as we have, you know he is just one small step from “The Show” (major league). You can find out more about Jed in the sports section of July 29 Statesman Journal newspaper. We are praying for you, Jed. Hope you stay “injury free”. It is clear you have the talent! . .
