August 9, 200520 yr Defense and walks killed the Haegermeister. Sweeney had 2 RBI's, but was 0-4. Rogo was 2-4 with 2 triples.
August 9, 200520 yr Mississippi 6 Barons 2 W-John Thompson L-Haeger (4-1) Charlie had control issues tonight he walked 7 batters his knucler is still a work in progress. Haeger still made pitches when they needed to be made getting 3 DP balls and getting 2 others that were mishandled by Pedro Lopez and Wally Rosa. One thing I liked about tonight was haeger never gave in throwing that Knucler in fastball situations and getting those ground balls. On offense Barons were shutdown by Atlanta Braves pitcher John Thompson. Rogo had a pair of triples tonight one off the RF wall and the other off the CF wall. Jerry Owens picked up a hit to raise his streak to 15 and 27 out 28.
August 9, 200520 yr was Thompson up with the Braves earlier for some reason that name sounds very familiar.
August 9, 200520 yr QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:43 PM) was Thompson up with the Braves earlier for some reason that name sounds very familiar. Yeah, he used to pitch with Texas IIRC. He's been injured for the majority of the year.

August 10, 200520 yr QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 10:55 AM) Yeah, he used to pitch with Texas IIRC. He's been injured for the majority of the year. Oh yeah thats right, I remember he shut us down when he was with the rangers why the hell is he in AA of all places why not AAA.
August 10, 200520 yr Author Heck, Chipper Jones rehabbed in low A. It's merely about getting at-bats in. As explained previously by someone else, teams will throw their affiliates a bone with a name player hoping he'll draw. That and if the affiliate is at home and/or nearby the ML team then they may go to such a team as opposed to AAA.
