All-Diamond Team: David Justice
Prior to the 2025 season and the final year of professional baseball at The Diamond, fans voted for the All-Diamond Team, celebrating their favorite players who have come through Richmond over the last 40 years on their way to MLB stardom. One of the three outfield picks was David Justice, who played for the Richmond Braves from 1988-1990. Justice was back in Richmond along with members of the 1989 Richmond Braves team for a reunion celebrating their Governors' Cup championship run during the Richmond Flying Squirrels' final series at The Diamond. While he was in town, Justice sat down with Flying Squirrels broadcaster Trey Wilson to chat about his time in Richmond before going on to a 14-year major league career with the Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians, New York Yankees and Oakland Athletics.
