Droppings from the Nest, August 20th
Even with a pitchers duel between Hawks Robert Hernandez and Spokane’s Braden Tullis, the Hawks pulled out the win 1-0 thanks to an RBI single by Logan Watkins.
And on an interesting note, all three pitchers for the Hawks last night (Hernandez, Eduardo Figueroa and Dionis Nunez) happen to live with the same host family. I’m sure they went home and had a big celebration.
But now the guys hit the road for a week and a half, making visits to Yakima, Spokane and Tri City. It will be a nice break for us in the front office, and I have some pretty exciting plans in the works. Tonight I head to the Caldwell Night Rodeo, Saturday I’m planning on floating the Boise river for the second time this summer and then going salsa dancing. I’m also hoping to fit in another camping trip while the guys are gone. Oh, and lots and lots of sleep!
But before I get carried away thinking about my upcoming plans, let’s get to those droppings:
- Jordan Rodriguez with the Idaho Statesman take a look at Greg Rohan’s battle with HBP this season who has been hit seven times this season; the Statesman also has a recap of last night’s game.
- The Idaho Press-Tribune looks at the Hawks’ series win over Spokane.
