O's prospects have up-and-down week
11/04/2005
Andy Mitchell was more lucky than good in picking up his first win of the season on Nov. 3.
The right-hander allowed two runs in the seventh inning against Grand Canyon, but the Javelinas rallied to score four in the top of the eighth to gain an 8-6 lead in what became a 12-6 victory. Mitchell has been a dependable option out of the bullpen with a 3.44 ERA in 18 1/3 innings.
Mitchell and six other Orioles prospects are playing for the Javelinas, while another is playing for the Scorpions. Here's how they fared during the week of Oct. 28-Nov. 3:
LHP Adam Loewen: Loewen managed to remain the hottest pitcher in the AFL even while taking his first loss of the season. Loewen gave up one run on six hits over five innings but got the loss as the Saguaros defeated the Javelinas, 10-3, on Oct. 31. Loewen also struck out five and walked three. He is 2-1 with a 0.82 ERA in 22 innings.
RHP Cory Morris: Morris, who hadn't pitched since Oct. 15, was shut down on Oct. 28 because of a shoulder injury. No replacement had been named.
C Ryan Hubele: Hubele saw action in two games last week for the Scorpions, going a combined 1-for-7 to drop his batting average to .333. Hubele had a run-scoring single, two walks and a run scored in an 11-4 victory over the Saguaros on Nov. 3.
SS Brandon Fahey: Fahey appeared in only two games this week and went 1-for-7. The hit came in a 10-3 loss to the Desert Dogs on Oct. 31. Fahey also was caught stealing twice in that game.
3B Tripper Johnson III: Johnson continued to swing a hot bat, going 6-for-13 to raise his batting average to .389. The third baseman launched his second home run of the season to account for the Javelinas only runs in a 7-2 loss to the Desert Dogs on Oct. 29. He also went 3-for-6 with an RBI and a run scored in a 12-6 victory over Grand Canyon on Nov. 3.
OF Nick Markakis: After a torrid stretch that saw Markakis raise his batting average to .400, the right fielder tapered off as he went 4-for-18 during the week. Markakis did smack his first home run of the season, connecting for a solo shot against Beau Dannemiller of the Desert Dogs in a 10-3 loss on Oct. 31.
OF Val Majewski: Majewski continued to rediscover his sweet stroke, raising his batting average to .327 on Nov. 2, the highest it's been since Oct. 11. The left fielder became one half of the Javelinas version of the M & M Boys when he cracked a two-run home run two batters after Markakis homered in the eighth inning against Phoenix.
