Shorebird of the week 5-24-2007
Last night Delmarva fans were treated to something they anticipated back in April, the Shorebird debut of last year’s first rounder Billy Rowell. After tearing up two leagues last season (overall a .328 average, 3 home runs and 32 RBI in his pro debut, mostly with Bluefield) this 18 year old from New Jersey was expected to start the season here. Unfortunately an injury delayed his progress and last night was his first game of 2007.
Rowell started out quite well, getting an opportunity to put Delmarva in the early lead and coming through with a 2 run single in his first plate appearance. Overall he finished with that hit in four trips, striking out twice and contributing a stolen base as well. He also legged out a fielder’s choice that kept the third inning alive. So a pretty decent start to what’s hopefully a good remainder of the season for the Baseball America Rookie All-Star from 2006.
