Baseball: Garnet Valley’s Morandini carries on a familiar name

MARPLE — For parts of nine seasons, the name “Morandini’ was penciled into lineups at Veterans Stadium. A decade and a half after Mickey Morandini’s retirement, there’s another baseball player flying the family’s flag in the Delaware Valley.

Senior Griffin Morandini, the second of the Dandy Little Glove Man’s three sons, is upholding the family tradition at Garnet Valley, where he’s entrenched himself as the starting center fielder for the Jags in his second season at the school since he and his family moved from Indiana to be closer to their father’s budding coaching career.

The son of former Phillies second baseman Mickey Morandini, Griffin says heâ s never really viewed his dad as a professionnal baseball player, just as a dad. (Robert J Gurecki)
