 West Fargo's Matt Strom's road, long and winding, Sherwin. Yeah, Dan and Kirsten, but it's paid off. West Fargo native Matt Strom has earned the title of All-Star. The former Packer pitcher, now Philadelphia Philly, will make his first appearance in the Midsummer Classic. But Strom's road to the majors wasn't a direct one. Before being drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the amateur draft in 2012, the left-hander played his college ball at Neosho County Community College in Kansas. His former coach was on hot mic today and shared his first impressions of Matt.
