Spann Goes 2 For 5 As Javelinas End Losing Streak
10/27 Cup of Coffee: The Javelinas snapped their eight game losing streak with a 7-3 victory over the Mesa Solar Sox. Chad Spann went 2 for 5 with a RBI. Jacoby Ellsbury went 1 for 5. Dusty Brown was 0 for 1 with a BB and a run scored. Kyle Jackson got the win and his record is now 3-0. He threw 2 innings and gave up 1 run on 1 hit and 3 BBs. He had 1 K. Two Sox prospects have been chosen to participate in the AFL Showcase Game. They are Jacoby Ellsbury and Lenny DiNardo. One has to wonder if these selections were based on reputation rather than performance as it seems unfair that Chad Spann was not included on the roster. He is now hitting .359 with a .400+ OBP and a 1.000+ OPS.
