Do the play any of these minor league games on TV... because i know that i would probably check out our AA team every so often and would watch the AAA team while Frank was there.... Only reason i ask is because they showed clips of Frank last night so it leads me to believe that they are on TV somewhere.

Nah, Comcast just had a setup last night to highlight Frank, if I had to guess.

Barons 6 Mississippi 4

 

 

W-Lubisich (5-3) L-Basner (0-5) Sv-Jenks (10)

 

 

 

Good hitting up and down the line up tonight. Jerry Owens was key in drawing the first run with a walk then stole both 2nd and 3rd base with Sweeney getting the run home. Sweeney in the 6th lead off with a single then Rogo hit a rocket to the pitcher who fired late to second. Josh Fields laid down a sac bunt then after an intentional walk Aceves drilled a 2 run single. Nik Lubisich was outstanding tonight keeping the Braves off balanced. Ulcia Worked a scorless inning and Ryan Sweeney had the Defensive play of the season robbing Brian McCann of a game tying homer in the 8th. Bobby Jenks overwhelmed the 3 young Mississippi hitters in the 9th first batter was Onil Joseph who took 2 curves for strikes then swung and missed at 98 MPH fastball. The next batter Luis Hernandez was the complete opposite to Fastballs for strikes then Missed the curve. Josh Fields is now 0-17 and 3 for the last 31. Chris Young looked awful on some good breaking balls Struck out 3 times. Corwin Malone on the Mound as the Barons take on the best team in the SL West Tennesse Diamondjacks the Chicago Flubs team this weekend.

Do you keep up with the white sox BHAM or just a fan of the AA team?  If you do keep up with the sox does Owens remind you of Podsenick?  Because it would be sick to have a younger Podsenick on the way up.

 

 

 

The White Sox's were my first love I use to live in Iowa City which is a 180 mile trip across I-80. And luck would have it that I moved to BHAM where the Barons are. I keep up with the Sox's all the time. I think Owens is a Pods clone not much power sprays the ball very quick and good base stealer.

I'm worrying about Fields and Young. I know it's early, but I'd really like to see both of them control the strikezone a little better (read: strike out less).

 

But, I'm liking what I'm seeing from Owens/Sweeney/Rogo/Jenks. Keep up the good work at Birmy, fellas! And Tom (that is your name, correct?), keep up the great work with the reports. Awesome job, it looks like you get to see one helluva team (prospect-wise) in Birmingham this season.

 

Keep it up! Everyone appreciates it... :cheers

Thanks I like to be able to give a first hand account becuase boxscores can be misleading

 

Thanks Tom

The Barons will need all of their offense this weekend we are facing three very tough pitchers this weekend the Cubs AA team is very stacked as well. Corey Patterson better watch out Felix Pie is on the charge I believe he is a better CF than Patterson.
