I have written posts about silly promotions in the Minor Leagues, about the silly jerseys that they will sport this season and about the food that they offer. It is all nice, but those are not the promotions that get me excited. No, the promotions that I like will be at MLB ballparks this year….
Here is another overview of Dutchies in MiLB. AAA Roger Bernadina finally got his first basehit. In the game that was won by his Isotopes with 16-10 (handball score?) he hit a double in the bottom of the second inning. He was driven in on a single by Joey Wong. Roger drew two walks and…
Yesterday I expressed my displeasure with the performance of the Yankees on Saturday. Some times you wonder if the players you rant about have read your article. Nah…. I rather think that Joe Girardi showed his disgruntlement and had some tirade. Anyhow, the difference between Saturday’s game and Sunday’s game was like day and night….
Several Dutches played again yesterday. Here is an overview of those who saw action. AAA Roger Bernadina is still without a basehit. Yesterday he got a pinch hit appearance in the Isotopes 7-3 loss vs the Aces. Roger grounded out in a kind of curious play: 3-4-3-4. AA The Bowie BaySox won a close one…
Game one of the three game series between the Red Sox and the Yankees, was a good game. Exciting, and both teams refused to give in until the very last end. Too bad that the Bosox took it by one run after nineteen innings. I am not acting like I don’t care. Every loss vs the…
Shawn Zarraga, who was acquired by the Los Angeles Dodgers from the Milwaukee Brewers in an off season trade, has been placed on the temporary inactive list by the Oklahoma City Dodgers (AAA farm team). Despite a good Spring Training at the MLB camp, where he hit .375 in eight games, Zarraga did not make…
AAA The Albuquerque Isotopes tied the series by beating the Reno Aces 2-1 but Roger Bernadina didn’t get a basehit for the second consecutive game. He went 0 for 2 with two strikeouts and a walk. AA Randolph Oduber went 1 for 2 with a lead off bunt in the bottom of the second and…
Once again, several Dutchies showed their defensive capabilities. It shows once more that the Dutch have a shortstop overload. The Red Sox needed two games to beat, what many call “the Nursery home. The Bosox took an early 1-0 lead in the first inning and extended it with two runs in the top of the…
Yesterday it was the home opener of the 2015 Southern League season for the Montgomery Biscuits. The club moved from Orlando, Florida to Montgomery in 2004. Two years later, in 2006, the club celebrated it’s first Southern League championship and had a repeat in 2007. The BIscuits take the field at the start of the…
Yesterday the Minor Leagues celebrated Opening Day. Several Dutchies are playing in the minors. AAA Roger Bernadina shared the misery of the Albuquerque Isotopes as they fell to the Reno Aces 8-2. Roger went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts. He made a couple of fly outs in right field. AA Despite the fact that…
