Tucker won’t forget final home game

Mike Zunino is a beast.

Coming into Sunday’s game against N.C. State, he had hit a home run in three consecutive games. His 19 round-trippers on the season are tied for the most in Florida history by a catcher.

Heck, he was the third overall pick in the 2012 MLB Draft last week.

What his success proves is the growing respect teams have for Preston Tucker.
