Thoughts and pictures of my local minor league baseball team the New York Penn League Connecticut Tigers; a Detriot farm team. We'll still be looking at former Navigators/Defenders players along the way....

Defs lose 2-1.....Rojas and Cordido return....


Ben Snyder pitches well going 6 IP allowing 5 hits and both runs. Nate Bump gets off the DL and throws an inning of relief.
Things got off well in the first when Kyle Haines lead off with a triple but AR hit a liner to the pitcher who doubled off Haines. Of course Olmo then doubled but was stranded when Witter struck out. So they get two of their six total hits in the game in the first inning, extra bases hits to boot, and no runs scored. They managed a run in the top of the ninth on a Mike Mooney sac fly and that was that.

Misc fan notes: Joe Perez reports Nestor Rojas is back from Augusta to replace Pablo behind the dish. Nestor was here earlier this year and was sent back to Augusta when Pablo came up. Julio Cordido comes back for the first time this season from Fresno to replace Rohlinger. This will be Julio's fourth tour of duty with Norwich/Connecticut.
In MLBB action Pablo got his first MLBB RBI in his first AB with a sac fly. TI went 1 for 3 in his 2008 return to the bigs.
