With the folks at Dunder Mifflin in attendance Aroldis Chapman (undrafted FA - 2010) had his worst outing, giving up 2 ER on 2 solo HR, 5 H, and 2 BB while striking out 4. Chapman’s ERA ballooned to 1.29 with 22 Ks in 21 innings.
25 Year-old Chris Heisey (17th Rd – 2006) went 2-5 with a 2B. Heisey is now hitting .243/.308/.435. In 5 pro seasons he has hit .296/.367/.459 in 2009 PA.

24 year-old Dominican Denis Phipps (undrafted FA – 2004) went 1-3 with a 2B. Phipps is now hitting .271/.303/.400, in 74 PAs he has just 4 BB. I guess the saying about not walking off the Island is true.
26 year-old Nebraskan Eric Eymann (19th Rd – 2005) went 2-4 with an RBI. Eymann is now hitting .266/.273/.344, in 65 PAs he has just one BB. I guess the saying about not walking out of Nebraska is true.
