Jesse Byrd To Release Album Friday, November 3rd , 2006 While everyone knows his skills on the baseball diamond, few people realized that Jesse Byrd has skills in the recording studio too. The Tampa Bay Thunder second baseman announced today that he will release a jazz album. "It's something I've been interested in for a while and this offseason I just decided to make it official and get it done," he said. "I don't plan on leaving baseball behind quite yet, but I'm hoping this album does well." The release is self-titled and is expected to be in stores across the country this week. It features Byrd providing vocals as well as playing instruments. "I've heard a couple of the songs, it's not half bad," said teammate Dave Miller. "Some of the guys have ribbed Jesse about his music before, but I don't think anyone's laughing now." |
