Heathcott & Austin have big nights in Tampa loss

August 22, 2012 by Mike 41 Comments

Game 124: Escape from Chicago
Swept: ChiSox beat Yanks 2-1

In case you missed it earlier, C Austin Romine was officially activated off the 60-day DL and optioned to Triple-A. To make room on the roster, LHP Lee Hyde was bumped down to Double-A.

Update: Based on the Twitter, RHP Nick Goody has been bumped up to High-A Tampa already. Sure looks like this year’s sixth rounder is going to move up the ladder crazy fast.

The Rookie GCL Yanks had their game suspended due to rain with two outs in the bottom of the third. LHP Pedro Feliciano threw a scoreless inning in his latest rehab appearance and RHP Ty Hensley following up with 2.2 scoreless frames. He allowed a single, walked one, struck out three, and all five balls in play were on the ground. Here’s the box score, I’ll update the full stats when the game is completed tomorrow. Oh by the way, the season ends on Saturday and they’re two games out of a playoff spot. Crunch time.
