Recognize that blue shirt the guy on the left is wearing? Of course, it’s the Cobalt blue CrossFit CrownTown shirt. How about the guy wearing it?

Here’s another shot of him still wearing the shirt under his Reebok hoody. Give up?

Okay, this is him in the center of the pic during the celebration of a comeback win to clinch the series and move on to the NLCS against the St. Louis Cardinals. Hunter Pence, outfielder for the San Francisco Giants, is sporting the CrownTown shirt. He also eats Paleo and trains with CrossFit style workouts.

A lot of it is influenced from his brother, Howie, who is a member at CrossFit CrownTown (to the right of him in the top pic). Hunter has gotten his teammates to start eating better, too. The chef for the team is onboard with Paleo, grass fed meats, organic produce, etc. Buster Posey, the Giants catcher, ate Kale off Hunter’s plate jokingly, then hit for the cycle later that day. Everyday since then Buster has found a way to eat some Kale. Awesome stuff!

Good luck to Hunter and the Giants. Series is tied at 1 game a piece. Make sure you tune in for the rest of the series and support your extended CrownTown community. – WW
