Josh Hamilton Double-A Frisco Rough Riders Rangers Affiliate Rehab Game 5.19.2011

The Frisco RoughRiders got a lift this week with Josh Hamilton rehabbing his broken arm helped the Double-A minor league club sweep the Midland RockHounds.

Thurday night's game, the last game in Frisco before heading up to Triple-A Round Rock Express and before heading up to the big club Texas Rangers started out rough for the RoughRiders.

Trailing 0-4 in the bottom of the third was not fun to watch as Chris Mobley could not find the plate and when he did the RockHounds seem to know where it was going and gone it went, so he was pulled before the third inning!

The third inning the RoughRiders caught fire after a single by Renny Osuna the bat of Josh Hamilton came through with a sacrifice fly and rbi to get it all started.

Jonathon Greene, Jose Ruiz and Guilder Rodriguez added some pop to put runs on the board and happy fans in the seats.

The short night of Mobley put the bullpen to the test and Adalberto Flores the winning pitcher, Ramon Aguero who got the hold and Fabio Castillo came through with the save finished up 7 strong innings for the win! 

Thanks Josh Hamilton for helping out the little guys!

Round Rock Express

Sun. 03, 2011

It was a nice day for baseball to open up Dr. Pepper Ballpark in Frisco. Sunny with a nice breeze that helped the Express pound a 10-2 win over the RoughRiders.

Doug Deeds of Round Rock did most of the pounding going 3-5 with a pair of homers! With five homers by Round Rock in the Game. One out of the parker come from the ex-ranger catcher Tyler Teagarden. Chad Tracy brought his stick also and sent the head of the pitcher look like a bobblehead, first up then down! The fifth homer was by another ex-ranger and fan favorite Chris "crash" Davis.

Frisco did not hit a homerun but a nice triple by on of the stars on the Frisco RoughRiders ex-Texas Ranger Engel Beltre.

This meeting was one of two the next will be played at Round Rock to put a fun start to the season!

As a season ticket holder of the Frisco RoughRiders I am looking forward to seeing the boys start the season!
