Seven current Silver Hawks players recently graduated from an English class taught by Higher Standards Academy, LLC. As part of their graduation ceremony, the players performed a song called "The Ketchup Remix" that helped them practice their English skills. From right to left in the video, the players are: Victor Estevez, Yonata Ortega, Ender Inciarte, Ramon Castillo, Rafael Quezada, Diogenes Rosario, and Randy Rodriguez.

Today's Roster Move
Starting pitcher Charles Brewer has been promoted to Visalia.
Read the full story at www.silverhawks.com in the news section.
Anytime you lose a player who ranks second in the league in ERA, it's going to hurt. Hopefully the rest of the rotation and pitching staff will step up. Unfortunately, I think we all knew this move was coming, we just hoped it wouldn't happen.
Good luck to Charles as he moves on. He certainly proved that he could dominate this league.
It appears as if Diogenes Rosario is going to be moved into the rotation to fill the void.

April 6th Morning Report
A few notes for you to start the day...
-The players had practice yesterday evening, and they signed up for their gym memberships so they have a place to work out while they are in South Bend. The last two days have also been used to get the players set up with apartments to live in for the year.
-Monday I went to all 25 guys and had them pronounce their name for me so that I made sure I got it right. Yesterday I went to all 25 guys again, and gave them the opportunity to change their height, weight, and hometown on the roster to be sure that it was accurate. So if click on the roster tab on www.silverhawks.com, the height and weight are what the players told me (I made them promise to be accurate!).
-As far as practice goes, yesterday the Silver Hawks had a "simulated game" against each other. The two pitchers I watched most closely on the mound were Dan Taylor (lefty, 5th starter) and Randy Rodriguez (righty, long reliever). I was very impressed by both pitchers, and I think the hitters were as well since many of them turned around after various pitches to ask the catchers "what was that?"
-Keny Sosa and Diogenes Rosario threw as well, but I wasn't behind the cage at that point and can't give a great report on there stuff. I can tell you that Rosario has a rather effortless motion, but still pops the ball around 92-93 mph.
-It's supposed to rain all day in South Bend today, so practice outside will likely be canceled. However, there are some indoor facilities that can be used (either the Silver Hawks cage beyond the centerfield wall or Notre Dame's facility on their campus).
