Bryant set UMass-Lowell single-season and career records for home runs. The Boston Red Sox took him in the 9th round of the 1980 amateur draft, one round after Al Nipper. Mike hit .194/.273/.258 as a regular outfielder for the Elmira Pioneers, fielding .917. As a part-timer for the 1981 Winter Haven Red Sox, he hit and fielded better - .210/.289/.277 at the plate and .978 in the outfield.
