Change: Alexander excited about opportunity
■ Continued from Page 9
that before taking the field
against Toronto.
“Yes, I will be playing third
base tonight against the wishes of
my nose doctor, who deems
third base a whole lot more dan
gerous than shortstop,” he said.
Clearly, Ripken was not dis
tressed over the idea of returning
to the position he played when
he broke into the majors in 1981.
“It’s not really a sad day for
me. I’m playing a baseball game,”
Ripken said. “I’m going to be in
there in the lineup like I always
am. I’m going to look at it as a
challenge, to see if third base is
as comfortable as it was years
ago.”
Johnson hinted about making
the move earlier this year, but
carried through with his plan
Monday, in the wake of a five
game losing streak that dropped
the Orioles 10 games behind
first-place New York in the AL
East.
“I’d rather do it and be done
with it,” Johnson said. “My con
cern is with 25 players, not just
Cal Ripken, as great as he is. To
me, this is not that big a change,
except that it involves a Hall of
Fame player.”
Ripken, who played in his
2,244th consecutive game Mon
day, was replaced at shortstop by
Manny Alexander, 25, who has
spent his entire career in the Ori
oles’ organization operating in
Ripken’s formidable shadow.
Alexander is a lifetime .235
hitter, but Johnson has said for
months he would like to see how
the 5-foot-10 shortstop would
fare if he played every day.
“We’re 10 games out. I need to
look and see if Alexander is go
ing to be an important part of the
ball club,” Johnson said. “It’s dif
ficult playing behind a guy when
he likes to play every inning and
is the best at his position.”
Johnson said the move was in
no way a reflection on Ripken’s
performance. Ripken, 35, entered
Monday’s game with a .289 aver
age and nine errors.
“He’s done a great job, no
question about it,” Johnson said.
“He’s been a solid player. He’ll
be a solid player at third base.
He’s got the best hands of any
shortstop in the league, but his
range is limited. He’s not a fast
guy.”
Johnson knew the move would
be criticized, but decided it
would be best for the team.
"I’ve still got a great player in
the lineup, and we’re going to
find out about one of our younger
players,” he said. “If that’s so
bad, I’m sorry.”
Alexander was delighted to fi
nally get a chance to play the po
sition he is most comfortable at.
“I’m excited because I’m play
ing shortstop,” he said. “I didn’t
come here to take anyone’s posi
tion, but it’s been tough, not
playing.”
Emeralds: Team effort notches
another win for Saul’s troops
■ Continued from Page 9
scoring two in the top half af
ter reliever Jason Flach loaded
the bases with consecutive
walks and a single to Randy
Steams. Peter Bergeron laced
a single to center scoring two
runners to tie the game.
But in the bottom half of the
sixth, the Ems jumped back on
top. Adam Johnson and Rust
connected for back-to-back
singles and both advanced a
base when Bears catcher Josh
Glassey let a pitch get away
from him. Eric Pickett then hit
a hard chopper to first base,
scoring Johnson, giving Eu
gene the winning tally.
Koehler remains at 1-0, but
is not to concerned about per
sonal records.
“The win doesn’t matter to
me,” he said graciously. “My
job is to keep it close. If I pull
off a win, I pull off a win.”
Adam Milbum finished the
game on the mound for the
Ems, giving him his third save
of the year.
“You can’t say enough
about Milbum,” Saul said.
“He came in and got a left
hand hitter out and then he
closed the game out for us.”
Playing in place of regular ■
second baseman Pooh Hines,
who is injured, Angel Espada
provided the offensive spark,
getting on base three times,
scoring two mns, stealing two
bases and getting one RBI.
The win, coupled with divi
sion leading Boise’s loss to
Spokane brings the Ems with
in three games of the top.
