Re: welcome your Hillsboro Hops
I would think many more hops are grown in their former home town than in their new home town.

With the slate wiped clean and the NWL into its second half, Hillsboro is tied with all three other South Division teams at 1-1 (after going a league-worst 11-27 in the first half). Salem-Keizer won the South first half with a 23-15 record.
You might want to head down to Keizer for today's match-up as the Hops go against former UP standout Chris Johnson (3-3, 2.54).
Chris was a 17th round draft-choice of the SF Giants in 2012, as I recall.

Re: welcome your Hillsboro Hops
Couldn't make it down there tonight, but Chris had another good start tonight: 6.0 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 1 BB, 4 K. Didn't get a decision as the Volcanoes lost 1-0.
He's done really well in his second pro year. Don't pay much attention to his 3-3 record because wins are about the most useless pitching stat (yes, really). What the Giants will like is his 47 SOs against just 5 BBs in 52 innings (FIVE walks! One every two starts! ) and .199 opponents' avg. He's doing his job, getting guys out. He just needs some runs from the offense.

Re: welcome your Hillsboro Hops
Ronnie Gajownik was named manager of the High-A Hillsboro Hops on Friday, the first woman manager at that level of minor league baseball. (Last year, Rachel Balkovec became the first female manager in professional baseball when she led the Yankees’ Class A team, the Tampa Tarpons.)
Gajownik, who won a gold medal in the 2015 Pan-American Games as part of
Team USA’s women’s baseball team, started with the D-backs in 2021 as a
video assistant at Hillsboro.
