David Hamilton is back with the WooSox after being optioned from the Boston Red Sox, where he struggled to find his rhythm, batting only .179 in 62 games this season. Despite the difficulties of the demotion, Hamilton is approaching this new chapter positively, focusing on refining his hitting and continuing to showcase his speed on the bases, where he has 15 stolen bases, tying him for the team lead.

Previously, Hamilton had a stellar season in 2022 with the Portland Sea Dogs, leading Double-A with 70 stolen bases. His goal now is to improve his performance in Triple-A and earn a return to the majors. With former Red Sox player Tommy Harper offering encouragement, Hamilton aims to enhance his line-drive hitting, build on his base-stealing abilities, and contribute defensively while striving to make his way back to the big leagues.
