The Payette Outlaw IPAs got dealt a tough blow in game 1 of their series vs rival Newcastle today, as they lost slugging DH Bryce Harper for the season.

Harper (pictured above in good spirits) was drilled by a fastball by Aaron Harang in the 2nd inning. The umpires felt the HBP was intentional and ejected Harang, who learned after the game that he’d been suspended an additional 7 games.
Harper finishes the year having played in only 25 games, hitting just .216/.269/.309 with 2 home runs.
That was some shit luck for Payette – getting the bizarre roll at all when you have your F durability guy at the plate is bad enough, but then to get that particular bizarre roll AND like a 92 roll for the injury……despite the rivalry with the Outlaw IPA’s, the Horsemen regret their role in this incident.

Agree, that is shit luck, and I hate seeing stuff like this especially since I’m running an F durability guy out there as my DH (Tulo).
