It’s funny how my body is trained.  When 5:00 rolls around I have to literally tell myself I can go home and not to the stadium. 

Oddly enough, I ended up going to the stadium anyways.  We were hosting a company picnic there, and even though I wasn’t scheduled to work the event, I thought I would stop by just to say hi anyway.

I guess it’s just hard for me to get out of the routine of going to the stadium every night.

Anyway, on to the droppings:

• The Idaho Statesman recaps last night’s 6-2 win over Eugene.
• The Idaho Press-Tribune also recaps last night’s game, noting Andres Quezada’s first win of the season.
• Outside the Press Box, the sports blog of Wichita State University’s student newspaper The Sunflower Times takes a look at Wichita native Logan Watkins and his recent hitting streak (which he extended to 15 games last night!)
• Also, check out my newest article “Fast Food Culture in the Clubhouse” on www.boisehawks.com. 

Additionally, I just got word that the Hawks have added LHP Chris Rusin to the roster.  He will join the team in Eugene tonight. 

Rusin was selected by the Chicago Cubs in the 4th round (140th overall)
of the 2009 draft out of the University of Kentucky.  At UK, the
southpaw recorded a 7-4 season with 108 strikeouts.  Rusin is coming to
Boise from Mesa where he’s pitched five innings for the AZL Cubs,
allowing one hit, walking three and strking out two.
