June 13, 200520 yr So we decided to go to Winston-Salem rather than Kanny because it ended up being like half the distance. I was personally disappointed, but was outvoted by those who were driving me. We got there just as Lee was hitting his first jack. The Hogs managed to blow a five run lead in the top of the ninth and then eventually won it in the bottom of the tenth. Carlos Lee hit two dingers. By the way, is he related to the other Carlos Lee? He looks an awful lot like him, is also from Panama and also wears number 45. Very confusing. He also looks like a monster at the plate. The other catcher...that Cipriano guy...I saw in the program he was born in the 70s...isn't 27 a little old to still be middling in A ball? I was gone at the concession stand during Daigle's homer....I didn't realize he was such a stud but his number are UNREAL....he also had a double. There were a lot of home runs hit. Also, some poor defense and baserunning at times. All in all, it was fun. Pretty damn good for my first minor league game.

June 13, 200520 yr The 'Hogs stadium is really very endearing, we took in a couple of games back in '03. If u went there, i assume you got a hot dog with some "slaw" on it.... all those carolinians put cole slaw on their hot dogs...

June 13, 200520 yr how old is he and how much of a prospect is he? I say this because he seems to be hitting really really well out there.

He turns 24 this year if he has not already. He has been in system about 5-6 years already, first year above rookie leagues, even if we keep him, he will leave as a minor league FA before he ever got to the bigs. Basically he is not going to make it, not with us.
