Adenhart Gets Win, Gets Sent Down

Nick Adenhart got his first MLB victory just in the nick of time Monday night against the Pale Hose heroes.

Adenhart concluded his rocky stint in the bigs with a victory and then was promptly sent back to Salt-Lake for some more seasoning to make room for 3,500 clubber John Lackey.

Young Adenharts line read like this: 5.2 IP, 9 HA, 4 ER, 3 BB and a K. And oh yea, the W.

Well hopefully the Salt-Lake seasoning does him good, because catcher of the Pale Hose heroes A.J. Pierzynski had this to say about the 21-year-old hurler, "He's got good stuff and he's got a chance to be pretty good...he got a little wild here and there, but other than that he's got a good curve ball, good changeup and good life on his fastball."

Thats what I'm talkin about A.J.! Three plus pitches and a contending team. I can't wait until next time. I love any pitcher that has good life on a fastball and a solid change.

To be continued...
