The helpful side of Nix

Nix helps in ways you may not realize ya know, like how you can impress all your friends by foreseeing the future! When Nix steps up, just mention to your friends that you have seen the future, and Nix will hit an infield ground out. Just one of the many ways Nix can improve your social life!

We should have a contest

for every game that Nix starts, we should guess what his pathetic average will be by the end of the game. He is at .127 (eww) right now….I am thinking… .122 by the end

Speaking of K's...

Jhoulys Chacin has 11 stirikeouts and no walks for Modesto tonight thru 6 innings…but he’s also given up 12 hits and 4 runs. Nuts lead 5-4 in the bottom of 6th.

by DeepPurple on Jul 17, 2008 10:10 PM MDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Chacin gets another win

Modesto holds on to win 6-5; Chacin goes to a 4-0 record. What’s the scoop on Nuts closer Andrew Johnston, who got the save tonight and has pretty nice season numbers with 21 saves, 1.47 ERA?
