fathom Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Yuck. I'm not sure Anderson could hit a ball well against Radke if he faced him 10 times. Not bashing Anderson at all. Just not a good pitcher to face in your first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First AB was worked over by Radke on several changeups and struckout. Second AB made contact, advanced Uribe into second, but was thrown out at 1st.

As much as I hate to, I'm gonna have to agree. I can't remember the last minor leaguer to come up and do anything of worth. Except for Jaime Burke. I guess the last one would be Burly.

Morneau and Ryan were big time contributors when they were first called up. Morneau will be a guaranteed 30 homer per year player during his career.
