County Crossing Bloodbugs Ship Hudgens to Quincy
The County Crossing Bloodbugs swapped 20-year-old minor league RHP Greg Hudgens for 20-year-old minor league LHP Lobby Chairleg and 21-year-old minor league C Jermaine Dent of the Gunners after what Quincy officials would only characterize as "difficult" negotiations.
The Slog's O'Dell Slugs His Team to Victory in 11
Infielder Terry O'Dell enters his second season with The Slog Ghouls, not having hit a home run for them in his first season there after being traded from Vault 81. Today, he became a hero when he hit a two-run bomb in the bottom of the 11th, giving the Ghouls an 11-9 victory over Salem at Hubric Comics Park in Fort Hagen. The Slog will now move on to face the home host in the Winner's Bracket.
O'Dell only had one at bat after coming on as a defensive substitute in the 10th inning. Catcher Shawn Cherry led the Ghouls in hitting, going 3 for 6 with a run and an RBI. Boots Yellowhair and pitcher Bruce Iddings each knocked in two runs.
The Witch Hats got a lot of power from both Chris Treestump and Antonio Toeclaw, who each hit two home runs off Iddings. Toeclaw's two home runs were two-run homers, while Treestump hit two solo shots.
All Day 8 scores are below, as well as updated brackets.
