Congrats to Daniel Hudson

what league is this in?

Kannapolis is the A level affiliate of the Chicago White Sox. Kannapolis plays in the South Atlantic League. Both Dan Hudson and Dexter Carter are on the team after being drafted last year out of ODU.

Intimidators right-hander Daniel Hudson was named the South Atlantic League pitcher of the week for the period of April 27 to May 3. Hudson joins Greg Infante as the second Intimidators player to win the award this season.

Hudson has been dominant in his first four starts of the season, but picked up the honor thanks to one great appearance. Hudson struck out 13 Lake County hitters in seven scoreless innings in Thursday's 1-0 Intimidators win. Hudson did not factor in that decision.

Hudson is 1-2 with a 1.23 ERA in 22 innings over his first four starts.

The award may be the final hurrah for Hudson with the Intimidators. The 22-year-old right-hander was called up to High Class A Winston-Salem on Monday morning.

Congratulations Dan. Congratulations Sam and Kris. I know you've been listening to the MILB broadcast of Dan's games...when you can't get there. We look forward to great things from Dan.

Nice little write-up about younger brother Dylan. His two grand slams, against Bayside and Ocean Lakes. Two in one month!!!
Grasscutter, don't think the wind could be blowing out on each of those. ODU probably needs this kid too!!! At least it might get you to another game!

You know what will get me to a game? Those tickets you have in your pocket. I might actually make it this weekend. What the heck happened yesterday (28 runs)? Thanks for all the kind words everyone. Definitely been a good month for tidewater pros, as Zimm and JU are tearing it up.

I'm in Winston-Salem this week, and I was able to see Dan's debut in Hi-A with the Dash.

(Actually I think his debut was last week, but it got washed out after maybe two innings, so this was the first one that went official.)

He was in complete command, yielding only one hit through 4, then was lifted after getting nipped for 2 runs in the 5th.

If he keeps that up, this won't be his last promotion this summer.

Saipanwarrior,

Grasscutter called me bragging today that Dan Hudson got called up to AA. He is on his way to Alabama!!!
Congrats to Dan!

1943.....Yes, I found out yesterday as well.....I was actually going to try and see him in Winston Salem when we were down for our 4th of July tournament....but not so much now....

Congrats to Dan and Grassgutter.....

Wow, that was even faster than I had expected!

Grasscutter,

Just read the recap for Dan on Saturday. He did great! Time for a ROADTRIP!

Hmmm...I believe you called me, Madaam. A road trip would be nice. Except that it's like, Africa hot down there.

Dan Hudson- Pitcher of the Week!!!!!
