April 27, 200817 yr Durham pounded Charlotte 11-4. Charlie Haeger got lit up like a Christmas tree in 4 2/3 innings: 9 runs on 9 hits + 6 walks. Birmingham beat Montgomery 4-0. A nice outing for Carlos Torres: 6 innings; 0 runs; 2 hits; 6 K's; and 2 BB's. Schnurstein hit a 3-run homer to provide the offense. Winston-Salem lost 6-3 to Wilmington. Rasner pitched. No performances worth noting. Kannapolis won 2-0 over Lake County in the completion of last night's suspended game. Anthony Carter with another great start. Logan Johnson with a 2-run homerun. Kannapolis was supposed to have another game but it was postponed due to rain. Edited April 28, 200817 yr by scenario
April 28, 200817 yr Author A couple of random minor league notes... Dewon Day has been pretty good so far this year. In 10 2/3 innings, he's given up 2 earned runs, striking out 10 and walking only 2, for a 1.69 ERA. If he develops control, he could turn out to be useful. Now that Wasserman has been called up, it looks like Adam Russell is going to get a shot as Charlotte's closer. So far this year Russell has a 2.00 ERA: 9 innings; 2 runs; 10 strikeouts; 4 walks. The #1-2-3 starters at Kannapolis (Carter, Shirek, and Rice) have a combined 71 strikeouts vs. 13 walks so far. Kannapolis closer Henry Mabee has a 0.69 ERA: 13 innings; 1 earned run; 14 strikeouts; 4 walks; and a 1.00 WHIP. Logan Johnson has the 5th highest OPS in the South Atlantic League (.995).

April 28, 200817 yr Man, Charlie Haeger is off to a rough start this season. Maybe it's time to go back to playing Golf again
April 28, 200817 yr QUOTE (scenario @ Apr 27, 2008 -> 09:53 PM) Logan Johnson has the 5th highest OPS in the South Atlantic League (.995). And he may be the shortest player in that league. For serious, I liked him in college ever, good hitter, gets on base.

April 28, 200817 yr Author QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 02:44 PM) 5'9", damn. That's not bad. Brian Roberts is 5'9". So are Dustin Pedroia, Orlando Cabrera, Corey Patterson, me, and lots of other famous people. Chone Figgins is 5'8".
April 28, 200817 yr I'm 6'3"-4"... so, yeah, eat your heart out all you shorties! Edited April 28, 200817 yr by BearSox
