Cobb County firefighters at Station 19 welcomed an extra special guest Tuesday.

Atlanta Braves pitcher A.J. Minter visited the station to show his appreciation for their service across Cobb County, which includes Truist Park.

Minter came with lunch from Chick-fil-A and a custom-made jersey with their station number and "The Rock" nickname that he had autographed. In return, Minter received a tour of the fire station, a trip in the fire engine and a Cobb County Fire belt buckle.

This was the first of monthly visits Minter will make this season to local police and fire stations to show his appreciation for first responders, in partnership with the Atlanta Braves Foundation.
