Sammons Sombraro, Sorry Sal

I'd like to thank the Richmond Braves, AAA affiliate of Atlanta, for making last night an evening of disappointment.

Legend Sal Fasano, donning the #25 and possibly a biker mustache sat all 9 innings on the bench last night in Rochester as the Braves beat the Red Wings 5 to 4. He made one small appearance warming up a pitcher but was quickly dismissed.

The worst part about the night was that the man playing in Sal's spot was a catching prospect named Sammons. Ok, we understand, let the young guys play....but Sammons was awful. Passed balls and wild pitches galore must have had Fasano's head in his hands...not to mention an 0 for 5 performance with 4 K's....the Golden Sombraro for this kid while our man sat idle.

Sorry Sal, we were pulling for ya.....
