Perseverance pays off for Florida Marlins reliever Brian Sanches

His heritage and stats are noteworthy, but Brian Sanches probably is most proud of the determination it tookto reach the majors.

The Florida Marlins' Brian Sanches pitches in the ninth inning in a game against the Milwaukee Brewers at Land Shark Stadium in Miami Gardens, Monday, June 1, 2009. Sanches' 0.95 ERA is the lowest among all major-league pitchers with at least 25 innings thrown this season. JOE RIMKUS JR. /

Sanches, a 30-year-old journeyman who never had experienced Opening Day at the major-league level, was one of the 27 players -- two more than the 25-man limit -- remaining on the Marlins' roster.

'Marlins reliever Brian Sanches is proud of his heritage and pleased with his success. But what's even more gratifying to him has been his perseverance, reaching the majors when there were many times he wanted to give up.

`There were countless times where I thought enough was enough, how much can a person take of this?'' said Sanches, who turns 31 on Saturday and spent most of his professional career bouncing around the minors. ``But I'd step back and regroup and keep inching along.''

Perhaps it's in his blood.

Sanches is believed to be one of only three players in the majors classified as American Indian. The others are Boston's Jacoby Ellsbury and the New York Yankees' Joba Chamberlain.

Sanches, who hails from Texas, is part of the small and obscure Caddo tribe.

He has dressed up in tribal costume for annual pow-wows and proudly checks the box on registration forms proclaiming him as American Indian.....
