Publicado por: Raiko Martín Como suele suceder, el calendario clasificatorio se extenderá más allá de lo programado, por lo que las capacidades en el tren a la segunda parte de la actual campaña beisbolera no se deben completar antes de los primeros días de diciembre. No obstante, a las novenas de Ciego de Ávila e Industriales ya se unió la de Granma, y a este pelotón pudiera sumarse la de Holguín si gana uno de los tres partidos que le restan a partir de hoy en el establo de los Alazanes. Los Cachorros continuaron este sábado su impresionante cierre de campaña completando la barrida sobre Santiago de Cuba, en duelo reprogramado a causa de la lluvia. En el Guillermón Moncada indómito, los visitantes castigaron temprano al internacional Danny Betancourt, mientras que Ernesto Blanco y Luis Ángel Gómez unían su talento para llenar de ceros a las Avispas. También pudieran apuntarse para la travesía los matanceros, sobre todo si logran arrollar a Artemisa en sus próximos compromisos.

    SEATTLE MARINERS NEWS CLIPS July 5, 2011 Who doesn't like sunny days? M's third baseman Kennedy LARRY LARUE; Staff writer Published: 07/05/1112:05 am The Tacoma News Tribune OAKLAND - When the pop fly went up, third baseman Adam Kennedy moved 10 feet into foul territory and froze like a statue – his glove up, waiting – until the ball plunked down behind him. “I saw it at its height, maybe for an instant on the way down,” the Seattle Mariners infielder said. “When it went into the sun and didn’t come out, there’s really nothing you can do.” As he stood there, did it occur to Kennedy the ball might hit him in the head? “You know it’s a possibility,” he said. An inning later, Oakland’s Jemile Weeks popped one up into foul territory near the stands, and Kennedy took off after it. Sort of. “I saw it off the bat, then it was gone, and I ran toward where I thought it would come down,” he said. It landed near his feet and bounced into the stands. “The fans seemed to enjoy it,” Kennedy said. He couldn’t recall ever completely losing an infield pop fly, and in two innings Monday lost two. “I told (shortstop) Brendan Ryan to get to anything he could, because he had a better angle with the sun, and he caught a couple,” manager Eric Wedge said. “I’ve managed enough games here to know, at a certain time of day, in a certain time of the year, balls just disappear over there.” WORK DAY Wedge called center fielder Franklin Gutierrez into his office for a morning chat , trying to help him take a little stress out of his life.

The purpose of the draft is to assign amateur baseball players to major league teams. The draft order is determined based on the previous season's standings, with the team possessing the worst record receiving the first pick. Eligible amateur players include graduated high school players who have not attended college, any junior or community college players, and players at four-year colleges and universities three years after first enrolling or after their 21st birthdays (whichever occurs first). From 1966-1986, a January draft was held in addition to the June draft targeting high school players who graduated in the winter, junior college players, and players who had dropped out of four-year colleges and universities. To date, there have been 1,170 Maryland players selected in the First-Year Player Drafts either from a Maryland High School (337), Maryland College (458), Non-Maryland College (357), or a Maryland amateur baseball club (18). The most Maryland selections in a year was in 1970 (38) followed by 1984 (37) and 1983 (36). The first Maryland selection was Jim Spencer from Andover High School with the 11th overall selection in the inaugural 1965 June draft.
