“This one to me is as special as his first,” says his mom, Lynn.
For as much of a dream come true as it has been for Brandon, the past 12 years have been just as special to the people close to him: His parents, his three sisters, his wife, Jalynne, and their four kids .
Lynn finds herself spending more time in the family section behind home plate than in her season-ticket seats. It’s where she can be with her grandkids, Braylyn , Jaydyn , Braxton and Bryson . An empty nest when Brandon entered the majors, the Crawford household now is making room for a fifth addition now, Jalynne“He pretty much mapped it out,” Lynn says. “He even wanted to be a husband and have a big family.
At the start of every season, Jalynne prints out three schedules — Brandon’s with the Giants and their kids’ school and sports calendars — and begins to map out the year. They try not to go more than two weeks apart, even if it means missing a day of school or a kid’s practice now and then, often navigating airports with luggage for five before boarding an unglamorous Southwest flight .
The only job Crawford has ever known is exactly the one he told his tee-ball coach: playing shortstop for the Giants. He has never spent a game — even an inning — at another defensive position, something only Aparicio and Smith, two Hall of Famers, can lay claim to with the same longevity.
