Shooter posted great statistics as a pitcher and he could probably knock a couple out of the park if he needed to. Shooter came to the cape league with his partner in crime, Aja Barto, his teammate from Tulane. The modern day Bash-Brothers became a successful combination, on and off the field. The Mamary family was a full house, Mom, Dad, four sons, James, Jonathan, Josh, and young Sammy. They hosted the two young men as they played for the Commodores. The wholesome family took in the boys with open arms and became very attached, after all, they were great kids. One of the Mamary boys, Jonathan, shares his August 16th birthday with Shooter. Coincidence or fate? Shooter Hunt currently plays in the Minnesota Twins minor league system.
