Is that Astroball?

I could see him and Teter catching on in Indy ball, if they want to continue playing.

It was actually a great tag, swipe on the way by.

Hit the ball hard every time he was up last night in Harrisburg

What a week. Six game sweep of Greenville, but just too little too late to hit the postseason. Good for Basallo for getting the callup for some extra ABs, even his outs were crushed.

should be noted that he also hit that home run *into* a gale force wind as the storm was approaching

"What, I threw my five innings, what do you want from me?"

I'm not a particularly good judge of talent, I was convinced that Henderson was going to be a bust. Everyone that I thought deserved a promotion this season got one.

just want to point out that the last three Aberdeen starting pitchers have surrendered a combined one base hit this week

He's been pulling the ball almost every time he makes contact. Groundout to first, groundout to second, pop out to second, single to right, etc.

tie game, two outs and two strikes in the ninth, and he rips one into the bullpen first walk off home run that anyone's hit there since COVID

Wasn't the longest homer I've seen there, but it was close, and a moonshot no matter how you slice it. Out of the ballpark.

The first home run wasn't heat-aided at all, that one was an absolute bomb. Almost cleared the clubhouse in left field.

Good to see that he's back, hopefully we get a good luck at him at for the full series at home next week.

Best that I can tell, all those improvements were made before the 2021 season. I haven't heard anything else about beefs between the town and team since.

I'll say this much - the attendance numbers are accurate. There's a good percentage of teams, minor and major, who monkey with the nightly attendance numbers (Oakland averaging over 10k?). There's some teams that have bizarre sort of algorithms to determine what the listed attendance is going to be for any given game that have nothing to do with what the gate says. Aberdeen's are the actual, through-the-turnstile numbers. This wasn't always the case. (I'll also say this - I went to two Bowie games this year, and neither game could have possibly had 1,000 fans through the actual gates).

Good to hear, thanks!

Yeah. You can message me if you want to know anything else, I have a feeling I shouldn't blab on an open forum about the specifics of events/my opinion on them.

The scorer actually had an emergency in the first few innings and had to leave, no joke, so there was some shuffling around. Also the umpires were not doing their job in regards to player substitutions, so the stat crew was playing from behind a few times.
