Biography:
Joe DeLuca returns to his place behind the plate at Regency Furniture Stadium in 2022. The Cicero, New York native was a stud with the bat in 2021, posting a stellar .304 batting average, and producing 70 RBIs. DeLuca went on a tear to finish the 2021 regular season, putting up an absurd .481 batting average, while collecting hits in each of his last 16 games plus a playoff game, tying the Blue Crabs hit streak record for the season. The 25-year-old continued his success in winter ball, he held a .368 batting average for Federales de Chiriqui, winning the Most Valuable Player award in the Panama Professional Baseball League. DeLuca is playing some of the best baseball of his life, and will look to roll that in to the 2022 season. |
