    Atlanta Braves Clippings Friday, April 8, 2016 Braves.com Back where it all began, Francoeur grateful Veteran appreciative of chance to return to hometown Braves By Mark Bowman / MLB.com | @mlbbowman | April 7th, 2016 ATLANTA -- When Jeff Francoeur strolled to the plate as a pinch-hitter during the eighth inning of Monday's Opening Day game against the Nationals, it was as if time stood still. The raucous hero's welcome he received served as a reminder that many fans still view him in the same beloved manner that they had back in 2005, when the hometown kid homered in Major League debut. "Coming back, when I went up to bat [on Monday], I think it truly meant more to me than my first game here, when I walked up to the plate and hit a home run -- just from the sole fact of where everything has gone and where I've been," Francoeur said. "To finally come back here, it's like I never gave up." Those who knew Francoeur as the suburban Atlanta multisport high school phenom who graced the cover of Sports Illustrated a month after making his big league debut did not anticipate how the script unfolded over most of the past decade. There was no reason to believe this kid who was destined for stardom would be forced to navigate a humbling path and eventually return home with extreme appreciation for his new role as a backup outfielder for the Braves. "Now I'm going to be ready to do whatever I have to do," Francoeur said.
