Senior outfielder Parker Osborne, right, rehearses for his role as a coach for the Walla Walla Sweets this summer on Monday during a portrait session in the Saluki dugout at “Itchy” Jones Stadium.  Michael Baird, center, a freshman pitcher, and Connor Kopach, left, a sophomore infielder, will be playing for the Walla Walla Sweets this summer, along with Dyllin Mucha, not pictured, a sophomore outfielder. Though all four are currently teammates at SIU, Osborne will step up to the role of coach during the collegiate summer season. The Walla Walla Sweets are part of the West Coast League.
