Ok, it's been long enough and I'm convinced. Anderson is deserving of a promotion to AA. In the end the Barons could actually have a solid OF all of a sudden. Anderson, Bikowski, and Spidale. Funny how things change so fast.

[MnSoxFan]

I would like guys to stay put for half season, then maybe do some cuts and some promotions, and then we can restock lower levels with draftees.

Anderson needs to be promoted before the June 17 Rickwood Classic, so you can see him when you and Shoe get your asses to Birmingham, MSF!

I can live with that. Anderson is deserving at this point though IMO. There is no hurry with Reed as the CF of the future. There won't be a spot for Anderson until at least next season if Lee is traded and/or Maggs leaves. In either case, Anderson won't be ready next season.

Birmingham wins 6-3 in 8 innings. The rains came and ended the game in the middle of the 8th inning.

 

Munoz pitched pretty well, but wasn't real sharp. He had one bad inning where he got a bad break on a balk call which scored a run, and then forgot to catch a throw from the 1B while covering first to allow the third run. He allowed 3 hits and three runs in 6 innings, but got a no decision.

Barons' rally keeps Munoz streak alive Wednesday, May 19, 2004

 

DOUG SEGREST News staff writer

 

Arnie Munoz has four more days to ponder his place in the Southern League record book.

 

Seeking his 13th straight win, the 21-year-old Birmingham Barons ace pitched effectively with one exception Tuesday night at the Hoover Met. But Munoz (6-0) did not figure in the decision.

 

Birmingham rallied for a 6-3 victory against the Huntsville Stars after Munoz's departure in a game that was called after a 52-minute rain delay.

 

Munoz is next scheduled to pitch Sunday at Greenville.

 

Munoz entered Tuesday's start with a 12-game Southern League winning streak that began in 2002, when he went 6-0 as a reliever. Munoz spent the entire 2003 season in the bullpen of Triple-A Charlotte before a return to Birmingham this spring in a new role - starting pitcher.

 

The 12 straight wins tied him with four pitchers in the Southern League record book. The last SL pitcher to win 12 straight was Luis Andujar of the Barons, who reeled off the dozen wins during the 1995 season.

 

Munoz learned he tied the record after picking up a 7-3 win at Montgomery last week.

 

Munoz has vowed not to cut his hair until the streak ends.

 

Munoz started strong, striking out three Stars in the first two innings. But he ran into uncharacteristic trouble in the third, allowing a one-out single and a triple to Huntsville's No. 9 hitter, Johnny Raburn.

 

After Rickie Weeks walked, Munoz got the apparent second out with a pickoff at first to thwart a double steal.

 

Instead, a balk was called, pushing Raburn across with the second run. Weeks would score the third run on a Munoz throwing error.

 

Munoz would exit after six innings, having allowed just three hits.

 

The Barons (21-17) would rally to tie the game in the sixth on Scott Bikowski's RBI groundout and move ahead a stanza later on Rob Sasser's sacrifice fly.

 

Nate Murphy put the game out of reach in the eighth with a two-run homer that came just before the umpires suspended play. After the delay, umpires ruled the field unplayable, ending it officially after eight innings.

 

The Barons reported 3,354 tickets were sold for Tuesday's game.

 

BARONS NOTES: Reliever Jim Bullard (1-1, 4.76) will make the spot start tonight against Huntsville's Chris Saenz (3-1, 4.02).

 

Bullard pitched most recently on Monday, working an inning out of the pen. A day earlier he picked up the win in relief as he, starter Wyatt Allen and Josh Fields managed to no-hit the Mobile Stars for 71/3 innings.

Luke Scott went 2 for 3 with a home run and two RBIs to help the Salem Avalanche to a 3-1 win over the Winston-Salem Warthogs last night.

 

Scott gave the Avalanche a 1-0 lead in the first inning with a two-out solo homer off starter Jeremy Hudson.

 

The Warthogs tied the game in the second inning off Ava-lanche starter Jason Hirsh. With one out, Casey Rogowski singled to right and moved to second on a fielder's choice. Ricardo Nanita followed with a double to right to knock in Rogowski.

 

Salem took the lead for good in the bottom of the second. Adam Seuss doubled and went to third on a fielder's choice. Seuss scored on a single by Gavin Wright to make the score 2-1.

 

The Avalanche added an insurance run in the eighth off reliever Brad Murray. Wade Robinson singled, and went to second on a wild pick-off throw. Robinwas bunted to third and scored on a sacrifice fly by Scott.

 

Huson (0-1) pitched 51/3 innings, giving up six hits and two runs.

 

Hirsh (3-3) and reliever Dan-iel Freeman limited the Wart-hogs to six hits.

Bull is getting another spot start? Hopefully this one goes much better for him!

Hamstring..... not sure of the severity, but I am told he is listed as day-to-day at this point.
