Droppings from the Nest, September 4th-6th

Well, tonight is the last game of the season–and boy, what a summer it has been.  I can’t wait to sit down and actually reflect on the season…of course tying it in with a blog post as well.

But before I get ahead of myself, let’s get to the droppings I need to catch up on:

Droppings from the Nest, August 28th

Once again, the Hawks just couldn’t pull it together to scoot by Spokane; three Boise errors allowed for three unearned runs for the Indians and a 4-2 outcome.  And while Logan Watkins saw his hitting streak end with 17 games, several other Hawks kept their bats alive.  Bobby Wagner extended his to 13 games, Hak-Ju Lee to 10 and Greg Rohan to nine games.  The Hawks are now just one loss away from the disappearance of post-season hopes.

Valdez.jpgOn to the droppings:

After Valdez was named to the post-season all-star team he was promoted to the Peoria Chiefs (Low-A).  Valdez hit .302 with 17 stolen bases in Boise.  Known for his speed, Valdez is tied at second in the NWL with stolen bases, only second to teammate Hak-Ju Lee (22).

Logan 2.jpgWhile some Hawks bats stayed hot, ultimately Boise fell to Spokane 14-5 last night. Bobby Wagner extended his hitting streak to 10, going 2-4 with two RBI.  And Boise’s resident hot hitter Logan Watkins (right) extended his hitting streak to 15–for the second time this season.  Watkins is the only player in short-season to have two 15-game hitting streaks.

Now let’s get to those droppings:

Droppings from the Nest, August 12th

En honor de tonight’ noche del Latino de s en el estadio,

traductor en línea.

And for everyone who is as linguistically challenged as me…here are today’s droppings in English:

If you couldn’t decipher my broken Spanish above…today’s post was written in Spanish in honor of tonight’s promotion–Latino Night.  Additionally, Hawks pitchers Robert Hernandez and Eduardo Figueroa taught members of our front office some salsa steps…you will be able to check out the video here tomorrow.
