Adding to Eureka's injury woes, firstbaseman Michael Brown suffered a broken kneecap, and will miss seven months. Starting pitchers Francis Baker and Jerome Burnett, as well as outfielder Orlando Carranzo, were already lost for this season.
"It has been a tough season," Eureka GM Dalfiume said. "We knew we were playing mostly young this season, but the injuries made what was going to be a challenging season even more challenging. The upside is that other young players have had some opportunities to get their feet wet in the major leagues. A bit ahead of schedule, but that is the way it works sometimes."
