A Quebecer makes his mark with the Marlins

Charles Leblanc, freshly recalled by the Miami Marlins to live his first moments in the MLB, has been making a name for himself ever since he stepped into the big show.

Leblanc never stopped progressing in the minor leagues, and he always told his father that he was a big league player. So far, it’s fair to say he’s put his money where his mouth is as he’s establishing himself as a leader with the Marlins.

On Sunday afternoon against the Chicago Cubs, he was sublime with a great batting performance (three hits and a run).

The 26-year-old has hit at least one homer in each of his eight games in the MLB so far. He has a monster .444 batting average and 12 homers in 27 appearances in the batter’s box.

The Marlins and Leblanc’s next game is on Tuesday, when the team begins a three-game series against the Phillies in Philadelphia.
