Detroit Tigers Minor League Baseball Commentary and Analysis
[powered by WordPress.]
The Mud Hens took care of Ottawa 8-5 and while Mike Hessman went just one for four, that one hit was a two run homer that gave Hessman 23 on the season. The third baseman is having a nice season and he’s driven in 75 runs in 76 games and his slugging percentage is an impressive .589. He is a journeyman at 29 years old and the Braves gave up on him but this is a particularly good season. You almost feel bad for him because he has Brandon Inge blocking his way up but with a season like this, you wonder if it’ll get him some notice.
Chris Maples had a timely hit in the win as well. He went one for three with a double and three RBIs. Jack Hannahan went one one for one with four walks and three runs.
Jordan Tata improved to 2-1 on the season with a nice start. He gave up three runs on seven hits and two walks with five strikeouts in seven solid innings.
