Most guys that play in the minor leagues never reach the majors -- someone remind Tim Tebow of that cold, hard truth. But after years of hard work, Trevor Williams reached the top of the mountain. Earlier this week, he made his MLB debut with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Not only that, but Williams ended up winning his debut. After the game, he went over to the stands to celebrate with his wife, their child and his father.
You can probably guess who was shedding the most tears:
It was a night to remember for the second-round pick, maybe one of the best of his life. He also shared a few things on social media:
