Not one, but two baseball organizations suffered great losses within the past week, bringing a dark shadow to an otherwise exciting opening start of the 2009 season.
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim lost Nick Adenhart, a young pitcher who was considered the top prospect. He had pitched in his season debut Wednesday, throwing six scoreless innings and causing fits for a newly revamped Oakland A's batting order.
Adenhart had called his father the day before his scheduled start and told his dad to fly out from Maryland to watch him pitch because he believed something special would happen.
Something special did happen that night. The young man, who
the Angels believed in even after suffering an arm injury, pitched the best game of his short career.
In six innings, he kept the Oakland A's scoreless and allowed seven scattered hits.
