Hanson ends AFL season on high note
11/11/2005
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- It has been an uneven fall for the Cardinals, whose contingent in the Arizona Fall League had an up-and-down campaign for the Surprise Scorpions.
Travis Hanson turned out to be a bright spot for the Cardinals as the 24-year-old third baseman hit .261 with a home run and eight RBIs. He also drove in a season-high three runs on Nov. 7 in a 12-10 victory over the Peoria Saguaros.
St. Louis' other prospects hope to have better luck when Surprise plays the Phoenix Desert Dogs on Saturday in the AFL Championship Game. Here's how they wrapped up the regular season:
RHP Andy Cavazos: Cavazos struggled in his last two appearances, yielding six runs over 2 1/3 innings. The 24-year-old right-hander compiled a respectable fall overall, going 1-0 with a 5.40 ERA in nine AFL outings.
RHP Cory Doyne: Doyne gave up one earned run over 8 1/3 innings in his last six games. That included two scoreless frames in a 4-3 win over the Saguaros on Nov. 4. He finished with a 2-1 record and a 6.75 ERA.
RHP Chris Lambert: The 22-year-old righty had a tough outing in his last start on Nov. 7, giving up seven runs on nine hits in 4 2/3 innings against the Saguaros. Lambert went 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA in six AFL starts.
RHP Rich Scalamandre: Scalamandre was sharp in nine appearances out of the Surprise bullpen to close with a 1.76 ERA. He made a pair of scoreless appearances in the past week, throwing two scoreless frames on Nov. 4 against the Saguaros.
C Gabe Johnson: While the 26-year-old batted just .154 in 14 games, it was his handling of Scorpions pitchers that merited notice. Surprise finished second in the league in ERA and strikeouts.
OF Cody Haerther: Haerther hit just .203 in 18 games, but provided a highlight this past week with his first fall homer in a 7-5 loss to the Phoenix Desert Dogs. The 22-year-old Californian also had three doubles and seven RBIs, but struck out 20 times in 64 at-bats.
