Here is the recap of the ex Diamond Heels now in either the Majors, Triple or Double A (sorry when catching up I just can’t do all of the guys in Single A). As you all know this is the daily recap (which hasn’t be so daily of late) that I call “Heels in the ...

In what is a way late daily post of “Heels in the League” (MLB) here are the games from May, 28,2009. Unfortunately today’s blogging was cut short due to several family obbligations that couldn’t be avoided, and were totally unexpected so I could not plan ...

Once again a head to head meeting between to ex pitchers from Chapel Hill. One got to the hill, but got the loss, while the other didn’t see any action on the night. A very good night for one of the other Major Leaguers, while one to forget for the other. In the Minors one ex ...

Great games today for the two Major Leaguers bats, as they went 4 for 7 combined, with two homers, seven RBIs and two runs scored. The minor leaguers also had pretty good games at home plates, with several getting RBIs and scoring runs, with a couple of extra bases hits. All of ...

So, just when I had caught up, here comes the long weekend of Fourth of July. Sorry, if I do not do the bar b q circuit (aka have guests over and go over to friends’ houses) my wife would shut down not only The Fifth Corner , but my whole internet, and she would be right to ...

A good day for the ex players from Chapel Hill as one of them (from Double A) had a homer, while several had RBIs, multiple hits games, while welcome back one of the Major Leaguers that had been on the DL. All of this, and more, on this edition of “Heels in the League” ...

A very slow day for the ex Diamond Heels, with three out of four of the Major League teams with a touch of carolina blue off. Also several teams in the minors with ex Carolina players were off. On the other hand, the players that did get on the field had ok performances. It’s ...

On this date the Major Leaguers that play the field did a heck of a job, getting 5 RBIs (between the two of them), while the only ex Diamond Heel taking the mound in the MLB didn’t have a great outing. While in the minor leagues there was nothing spectacular. All of this, and ...
