Blaze Maris, Roger’s Grandson

He may not have the build of his late grandfather and is a catcher not an outfielder but Blaze Maris has the genes of Roger Maris.  Maris is shown here hitting a sharp single to center while playing for Florida South State College against St. Petersburg Junior College at Jack Russell Stadium in Clearwater which has a brand new scoreboard.
