Minor Athletics on vacation -- Minor League Dump

asyouwish33 — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 15:55:32 -0000

With some of our minor league affiliates in all-star break, my brother and I decided to go on vacation for the Independence Day weekend. We'll update you with box scores starting Monday.

In a small update, Weeks went 0-4, with 2 K in Wednesday game against San Jose, ending his 24 game on base streak. It will be interesting to see how Weeks responds to this small (very small) drought at the plate. In Sac news, (I said Sac...) Simmons had an excellent start, going a complete game allowing one earned and striking out three. It would be nice to see him build off this performance over the next few starts.

If anyone has any updates over the weekend, whether news or stats, please share. Take care all and enjoy the sun!

After watching yesterday's game, I was really happy to see Ellis back in an A's uniform. He is easily one of my favorite players. I hope he can sustain himself on the field and keep from injury. He truly is a human vacuum over there at second and he seems to be a spark for the team. Here are the results from yesterday's games:

Sacramento	0	0	0	2	0	3	0	0	0	5	11	1

Weeks continued his on base streak and the Rockhouds are on their all-star break. I'm liking the contributions of our new drafted hitters. Guys like Spina, Parker and Walton are really contributing. Let's hope the keep it up.

It was the end of the rode for Weeks as his streak ended, just in time for him to start a even longer hitting streak. Great game from the A's today. Hopefully we can keep it going, but I won't get my hopes up after watching that Giants series. Here's how our system fared today.
